Creating Hyperlinks

You can add hyperlinks to your document and then use them to jump to a variety of locations, for example to a marketing presentation, a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet or an HTML page. You can add hyperlinks to models, products and parts as well as to any constituent elements.

Note that in a given context, you can only have one hyperlink pointing to a given feature (model, product, part or constituent element).
