• Click Tools > Hyperlinks on the menu bar.
Hyperlinks are drawn as icons in the main navigation window and tags as text. Clicking a hyperlink in the
main navigation window will follow the link and right-clicking it will open a shortcut menu offering you the
options of Follow Hyperlink, Edit Hyperlink (see “ Editing Hyperlinks ”) or Select item containing
hyperlink, which will select the item onto which the hyperlink is attached.
Attachment Points
Hyperlinks and tags are by default attached to the center of their owner's bounding box, but you can
override this with more convenient attachment points. When adding or editing a hyperlink, you have the
option of adding attachment points, as described in “ Adding Hyperlinks ”. If you add more than one
attachment point, the hyperlink will be displayed attached to the closest attachment point to the camera
during navigation. This allows you to set up hyperlinks so that they are always available for following
when drawn in 3D mode during navigation, rather than disappearing behind objects. Leader lines will be
drawn from the attachment point to the hyperlink. The size of these lines can be defined in Hyperlinks
Options.
Following Hyperlinks
To follow a hyperlink, simply click on it in the main navigation window. If multiple hyperlinks are attached
to an item, the default hyperlink will be followed.
You can also follow one of the non-default hyperlinks attached to an item by selecting the item and
clicking Review > Hyperlinks and selecting the hyperlink from the list.
The default hyperlink can also be followed from the Properties control bar by selecting the item,
right-clicking any tab in the bar and clicking Follow Default Hyperlink on the shortcut menu.
Editing Hyperlinks
To edit a hyperlink:
1. Select a single item (see Chapter 13, Selecting Items for more details on how to do this) from which
you want to edit a hyperlink, and click Review > Hyperlinks > Edit Hyperlinks on the menu bar.
Alternatively, right-click the item from which you want to edit a hyperlink, and click Hyperlinks > Edit
Hyperlinks on the shortcut menu.
The Edit Hyperlinks dialog is displayed.
