hyperlinks adopt the relative base path of the current drawing when you insert
them.
When you select a block element in the drawing area that contains multiple
hyperlinks, the available hyperlinks are listed in the Hyperlink shortcut menu.
You can activate any hyperlink associated with the currently selected block
element, and edit or remove a hyperlink associated with a particular block
instance.
For example, suppose you have a block that contains a line and a circle. The
line has an attached hyperlink named line, and the circle has an attached
hyperlink named circle. This particular instance of the block has a hyperlink
named block, which you attached after the block was inserted. When you select
an element in the block, you can open the hyperlink associated with that
element, or any hyperlink associated with that particular instance of the block.
If, for example, you select the line block element, you can open the line
hyperlink or the block hyperlink. If you select the circle block element, you
can open the circle hyperlink or the block hyperlink. In both cases, you can
edit or detach only the block hyperlink associated with this instance of the
block.
To edit or remove hyperlinks nested in a block, you must first explode the
block.
To open a file associated with a hyperlink contained in a block

want. Each hyperlink has either a description or the full URL to the
