| One can break a big chart to smaller by linking chart pages together . External web links can use for more details about some thing in chart or attach external files . thanks . | |

| You can add links among pages of a single document already. Use the Off-Page Link block to do this. Adding links to outside URLs is on our to do list, and you can expect it in a future release. | |

| yes . I hadn't noticed about Off-Page Link block . But I test it in Firefox and Chrome now, and found that links don't work in a published web page (only works in edit mode).Is it a bug ? | |

| As of today, links among pages in a document work for published (read-only) web pages, as well as in PDFs that you export. I hope that helps! | |

| Is there any way to create a hyperlink off of the text within the flowchart? | |

| Is there a way to edit the off-page link block or do you just replace it? | |

| CADbloke: You can right-click an off-page link block (be careful not to click on the text part of it, that'll just link you through) to get a menu with options for editing the text or editing which page it links through to. There's no way currently to link to URLs outside the document, but it's on our (quite long) development list. | |

| I'm happy to announce that we've quietly released this feature today. Select any one block (it doesn't even have to be an Off-Page-Link block), and click the Link icon in the option bar near the top of the screen. You can link to another page within the document, or to any URL. The links even work in PDFs when you print/export to PDF.
