HYPERLINK NOT WORKING CORRECTLY

_Salmon — Fri, 18 Aug 2023 08:15:19 GMT

Hi,

i'm publishing a pdf with a schedule which has a link to the lamp webpage information.

To do this i've created a propertie as i show in the image below

If i click the link in the pdf, it doesn't open the precise web location (i've attached the pdf to test it)

Is this a limitation or am i doing something wrong?

Thanks

Alberto

I think it might be because of the text wrapping.

Try stretching the schedule column so it is wider and see if that works.

Not that you will want to do that, but I think it is your only option.

It is not a true hyperlink, so you can't reduce it and embed a actual hyperlink, it is simply reading the text.

Exactly! it works!

Do you mean i can do it in another way? as a true hyperlink?

Those links are quite shorts but some longer will be impossible to strech...

thanks Barry

No, Archicad does not accept hyperlinks.

Only typing the full web address will act as a link in a PDF.

I don't know any other way to add a shorter hyperlink.

Other than creating a QR code and pasting an image of that.

It won't be click-able, but you can scan it to link to a website.
