In the Hyperlinks section of the Hyperlinks tab, you can control the (big surprise!) look of hyperlinks.

 

 

Hyperlinks can be added to cross-references in the drawing sheets, so that you can click on a cross-reference and then immediately shift to the very sheet that the cross-reference refer to. Obviously, that is a very neat tool that improves the quality and the effectiveness of the documentation quite dramatically.

 

If hyperlinks should be created in the PDF files or not, is controlled by a check-box in the Generate PDF file tab. Please refer to the Create hyperlinks for cross-references sub-topic.

 

In the Hyperlinks section described here, you configure how the hyperlinks - if they are created - will look.

 

Two ways are available to mark hyperlinks:

 

•A surrounding rectangle in an arbitrary colour

•A deviating colour for the cross-reference itself

 

You can also combine both ways simultaneously.

 

In the bottom of the Hyperlinks section, an example of how cross-references will look with the current settings is displayed. Please refer to the figure above.

 

The two available methods are described in separate sub-topics listed below.

 

•Surrounding rectangle

•Deviating colour
