 * I was wondering if there was a way to cut out sections of a hotspot area?
 * As an example, if I were using an image of a window, I would like to create hotspots
   for the glass and also the frame; creating a hotspot for the frame would also
   select the glass if that makes sense?

 * Hello [@jlbsot92](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlbsot92/),
 * Overlapping hotspots can lead to unpredictable results. For example, if the glass
   of a window were both its own hotspot and part of the window frame hotspot, our
   code can’t correctly calculate which more info area should be shown when you 
   hover your mouse over the glass area as it’s part of two different hotspots.
 * We have had folks who needed what are essentially nested hotspots actually create
   two separate Draw Attention images that link to one another. For example, a first
   image where you’d select a floor of a building, that when clicked, took you to
   a second image where you could select a room on that floor. Would something like
   that work for your case?
