Hotspots are buttons that appear over common host commands in terminal sessions. When you use hotspots you can control the terminal session using a mouse or a finger-tap instead of the keyboard. The hotspot transmits a terminal key or command to the host. By default, hotspots are configured for the most common 3270, 5250, and VT commands.
Hotspots are enabled and visible by default, however you can disable hotspots for a particular session or choose to hide them.
Enable hotspots
Choose No to disable hotspots for the session you are connecting to.

Choose No to hide hotspots on the screen. Hotspots remain functional.
