Hi all,
Just working on a tab layout (fluid box) and would like to include hyperlinks in one of smartshape states.
I noticed that the hyperlink option was not available (properties). However when in state view and the text selected I can right click and then I can add a hyperlink. It appears to be added correctly however when I went to preview the course, the multi state slide (11.5 naming protocol) updates the buttons show that they have clicked but the state of the smartshape doesn’t change.
I then realised that the states would change to other states that didn’t contain a hyperlink so I removed the hyperlink from the other state and then it all worked.
Is this a known issue that hyperlinks to other slides can’t be included in states and then used in conjunction with the 11.5 update naming protocol?
Thank you in advance
Sam
I hope you can find a workaround. You can show a hyperlink button with the same action which changes the state of the object. Of course, if it is Fluid boxes you could bump on the stack limitation.
Have a look at:

You cannot add interactive objects to states, that is not a bug (has always been the case) but one of the limtitations of states. A hyperlink may not be viewed as an interactive object but has almost all the features of a button. Have a look at. I will post a oouple of links in a separate comment.
