Hyperlinks

Hyperlinks can refer to any page or symbol. Clicking on the link will bring you to the target page or symbol.

To create a hyperlink:

1. Enter text in the drawing and select it.
2. In the Properties panel, in the Other group, enter the Link in the following format:

type of link	format	example
to a page	/short page name	/AUX
to a symbol	symbol/short page name	W5/AUX
to a file *)	file:/// + path to the file	file:///D:/contracts/contract.pdf
to a web page	http:// or https:// + rest of the URL	https://www.proficad.com/

*) The hyperlink to a file can be created easily by clicking the Link Target link in the bottom part of the Properties panel.

To prevent unwanted moves when clicking a link, to move a link it is necessary to keep the F6 key pressed.

It is advisable to set the appearance of the text to make it clear that it represents a link – i.e., in blue and underlined.
