Notes
Setting Hyperlink Names
The default hyperlink name is Hyperlink Type + X, where X represents the Xth hyperlink. You can customize the hyperlink name by double-clicking the added hyperlink, as shown in the following figure.
FineReport supports formulas as hyperlink names in V11.0.30 and later versions. You can directly enter the formula text (starting with an equal sign) in the hyperlink name editing box. The formula result will be automatically calculated and used as the final hyperlink name.
Note:Dealing with Multiple Hyperlinks
If multiple hyperlinks are set in the same area, you can select the required hyperlink from the drop-down list that pops up when you click the area.
Hyperlink Setting for Charts in Cells
Hyperlinks set on the cell attribute panel (as shown in the following figure) are ineffective for the charts inserted in cells.
You can only set hyperlinks for the charts in cells under Special Effect > Interaction on the chart attribute panel, as shown in the following figure.
