Hyperlink behavior for diagram objects?
« on: May 04, 2018, 12:44:06 am »
Other than creating a script, is there a way to make a diagram object behave as a hyperlink?  Specifically, I would like to turn mind-mapping nodes into hyperlinks to other diagrams.

You can make any element composite (context Add/Composite diagram). When you dbl-click it opens the diagram.

Hi mbennetts,

I discovered recently similar functionality when I drag'n'drop one diagram on another. I prompted to choose how to drop a diagram. If you select to drop diagram as "Navigation Cell" you could get both cool visualization and hyperlink to another diagram.

Also, using composite diagram - is the standard approach for nested diagrams.

HTH,
