Adding in-line hyperlinks to text in Captivate 12.6?

Hi all – I have a project where I need to be able to link to an external website. I want the learner to see underlined words that they can select to open the website in a new tab.

The instructions given say ‘select the text, go to the Link section of the Properties panel and add the URL there’ but when I do that, it makes all of the text in the textbox a hyperlink, rather than just the text I’ve selected.

(The link then doesn’t work when I preview it locally, but I can test to see if that’s just a local issue).

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong, or any better resources on hyperlinking? Given that the output is an HTML page, I find it hard to believe that hyperlinking is so complicated.

Thanks for any help.
