Can you use a html macro (HTML Image macro) to insert an image map?

Question

I am migrating content from Madcap flare to Wiki Confluence. One of the greatest contraints are the image maps.

How do I use the HTML macros (HTML Image Macro) to add image maps. I have the HTML macros enabled.

(The previous answer to this question disappeared so I am updating my response.) This method worked really well for me: * Used an online image map generating tool to generate the HTML. I used Summerstyle. (Be careful, one tool I found is a bitcoin mining site.) (If you can't or don't want to use a free online tool like this, you can use any image editing tool that shows you xy coordinates for a specific pixel.) Clickable areas cannot overlap. * Attached the image to the wiki page and copied its URL. Also wrote down image dimensions. * Inserted the HTML Image macro into the wiki page. Entered the image's URL as well as image dimensions, and specified a name for the image map (myflowchart). The image should display at 100% size or the map won't work right. * Inserted the HTML macro into the page and plugged in the HTML generated by the image map generating tool. * Tweaked the HTML slightly to add titles (tooltips on mouseover) * Tested all links. I hope these steps help someone else.

I haven't tried this but my understanding is you can use an imagemap generator like http://imagemap-generator.dariodomi.de/ to upload a file and create HTML for embedding it in the native HTML macro, (not the HTML Image macro by Adaptavist).

Hi Ann, thank you for the information. It was very useful.

Using the HTML Image macro, I was able to add images that are on the web.

Is there some way that I can create a image map for an image that I create or that which is saved on my system?
