Assigning URLs
To assign URLs to an entity, or group of entities, in a drawing, simply select
them and enter a URL in the Edit Hyperlink dialog box.
A URL doesn’t always have to include the complete path for the file you want
to open. For instance, if you are linking to a website you should enter the
entire website address including the “http://” prefix. Similarly, you should
include the entire path name of a document that has a different drive loca-
tion and file folder. However, if you create a hyperlink to another drawing in
the same directory and folder, you need only enter the complete drawing
name and AutoSketch uses the current drawing’s path settings.
NOTE You can check the validity of a URL address by clicking Run on the
Windows Start menu. Just enter the address in the Open text box, and click OK.
If it’s a valid address, Windows opens the document.
To assign a URL to an entity or group of entities
1 Select the entity or entities to which you want to assign the hyperlink.
2 On the Database menu, click Edit, or click the Hyperlink Edit button on
the Standard toolbar. The Edit Hyperlink dialog box appears.
3 Enter the URL address in the Hyperlink (File or URL) text box, then click
OK. The entities are now hyperlinked to the file you specified.
NOTE If you drag the pointer from left to right, only entities that are com-
pletely inside the region are selected. If you drag the pointer from right to left,
even entities that are partially inside the region are selected.
To modify a URL
1 Select the entity, or group of entities, whose URL you want to modify.
2 On the Database menu, click Edit, or click the Hyperlink Edit button on
the Standard toolbar. The Edit Hyperlink dialog box appears.
3 Enter the URL address in the URL text box on the edit bar, then press
ENTER. Each entity selected is hyperlinked to the file you specified.
