Hi,

I am trying to place hypertext to text area. Hypertext function automatically works without waiting any clicks.

What is the solution of this problem?


Thanks for your assistance...

It would help greatly if you could let us know what version of Opus you are using, and what your computer environment and OS is. By going into your Profile (see link towards the top of the page, you can set up a signature (like I and many others have done) thereby attaching this info to every post.

In addition (I'm asking a lot, aren't I ) is is possible for you to post an example of your problem?

I've never come across this problem, and it's just possible that the additional info might help someone come up with a solution for you.

Hi Sentosa,

Firstly, thank you for your interest. I have added additional information to my signature.

Here is a sample code which automatically runs the hypertext


////////////////////////////////////////////

function try01()

{
Text01.SetSelection(4,7)
Text01.CreateHypertext(cal())
}


function cal()

{
Text01.ReplaceSelection('trial')
}


/////////////////////////////////////

I have textbox01 and a button in the main page, the button runs try01()
which is expected to create the hyperlink, it creates the hyperlink but additionally runs cal() function.


I hope this will be enough for explaining my problem.

Hi,

I am also experiencing this problem. I'm running Opus Presenter Pro, version 6.01 on Windows XP Professional. The problem occurs in script activated via a left mouse click on a button. A hyperlink created by the script is automatically run without the user clicking on the hyperlink text.

Example code:
TextDescription.SetSelection(0,-1)
TextDescription.ReplaceSelection("Testing")
TextDescription.SetSelection(1,4)
TextDescription.CreateHypertext(myURLpage())

function myURLpage()
{
LaunchURL("http......")
}

Many thanks for any advice,

Stuart

Hi Stu,

The help file is wrong.

If you are calling a script function in a script object you need to omit the open / close parenthesis like such:

TextDescription.CreateHypertext(myURLpage)

not

TextDescription.CreateHypertext(myURLpage())

Hope it helps,

Mack

Thanks Mack - that fixed it!

Kind regards,
Stu
