Hi

I want to add a hyperlink in some text in a director file - i dont want it to go to a web page, but take me to another part of my director file

Any ideas

Thanks

You can use the PointToWord function to determine which part of some text has been clicked on.

Example:
if your text is "something something something my hyperlink something,etc.."
then in your text's behaviour script:-

on mouseUp me
if getpos([4,5],pointToWord(sprite(me.spriteNum),the mouseloc) <>0 then
go to &quot;Your Marker&quot;
end if
end mouseUp

to jump to Your Marker if the fourth or fifth words of your text are clicked on.
