Thanks Bob, I made a smaller version of the video, so you might be able to see the full width now. In the interactive section, there’s a large hotspot, to capture any incorrect clicks. The small hotspot is over the Ribbon tab, OK button, etc., to capture the correct clicks.
Not an easy technique to master!

Thanks for the education… interesting. A couple of things I noticed. In the Camtasia Studio example, we can either click the arrow, or the hotspot. I had a similar experience in using SnagIt’s hotspots, which I didn’t care for.
Also, I was not able to see the “Remove Duplicates” icon.

Thanks Bob, I’ve added the interactive video here. Not sure what happened — maybe I just forgot to include it in the post originally.

Debra – I looked at the video but it appears it’s only 1:30 long. Your blog entry said to look at the 1:40 mark. Am I missing something? Also, FYI, took me awhile to identify the link for the video.
