Setting the URL for a button symbol or instance
A URL, or Uniform Resource Locator, is a link to another web page, website, or anchor on
the same web page. The URL can be a symbol- or instance-level button property. You can
attach a URL to a selected button instance in the Property inspector or in the URL panel.
You can attach a URL to a symbol, so that the same URL appears in the Link text box in the
Property inspector for each instance. This is helpful when entering absolute URLs within a
site; you need only complete the last part of the URL in each instance’s Link text box in the
Property inspector to link the button instances.
To set the URL for a button symbol in the Button Editor:
1. Do one of the following to open the button in the Button Editor:
■
Double-click a button instance in the workspace.
■
In the Library panel, double-click the button preview or the symbol icon beside the
button symbol.
2. Click the Active Area tab in the Button Editor.

Changing the URL for a button symbol won’t change the URL for existing button
instances of that symbol that already have unique URLs assigned to them. This also
applies to changes made to a button symbol’s target and alt text.
