Text Link

From SAP Enable Now Wiki

Scope

Purpose

The Page Text Link macro is used to add a text box onto a screen that, when clicked, opens another content object (or a URL or file). In this respect it is very similar to the Book Page 'Mode Link' object, but with more flexibility in what can be opened.

The Text Link is visible for the entire time its parent Step is displayed, regardless of the relative position of this macro within the Step in the Step View.

Be careful using this function, as the 'current' Simulation (the one containing the Text Link will remain open, and when the user closes the linked content they will be returned to the original ('calling') Simulation at exactly the same point from which they left. This macro is therefore not suitable for "what to do next" options at the end of a Simulation. This macro can also be used to provide access to a file (such as a template) that needs to be downloaded (for example, as part of a mass upload task).
