lexington Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I am doing some 'sketches' of possible floor-plans. I would like to add hot-links to these floor-plans which a client could click on to get a pinterest photo (for instance) to show possibilities. Has anyone done this or know how this could be done? Thanks! Rock HDPro 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I know this feature is part of Chief Premier but I never used it because such links, when placed only work in a plan file, so in order to share such links you would have to share the entire plan file, which is usually a little too much to handle for casual users. I do not think this feature, such as it is, exists in Home Designer Pro at all (I suppose I could be wrong but I did look for it in my copy of Pro 2016 before posting). A better authority for this is Chief Architect Sales or Tech Support in terms of something other than my opinion based upon only my experience. I have done this using Adobe Acrobat which does have the ability to manually install hyperlinks into a document that connects to documents or imagery outside of the PDF document.

lexington Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Thanks, David. That is definitely worth exploring... print-out a PDF of the floor-plan and overlay the links. Appreciate it. If anyone wants to provide a step-by-step, that would be cool. In fact, I may be the one if I have time to delve into this. Rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 When I say "Adobe Acrobat" I mean not the free reader app which Adobe offers for free download, I mean "Adobe Acrobat Professional" which contains lots of custom tools like hyperlink, shapes, lines, text tools etc, an expensive program.
