Linking from an Intelligent Graphic in a DITA Document
Follow these steps to create a link from an object in an intelligent graphic in a DITA document:
1. Click on the intelligent graphic to activate the Arbortext IsoView or Creo View control.
2. Choose > .
The Update Graphic Object Links dialog box opens. You use this dialog box to add and remove links associated with an object in an intelligent graphic. The dialog box provides a Links table that shows the links already defined for the graphic. You can click on one of the links in the table to highlight the object in the graphic associated with the link.
The dialog box also contains an Objects list that shows all of the objects defined in the graphic. You can view the objects by either their associated ID or name. When you select an object in the list, that object is highlighted in the graphic. Clicking on an object in the graphic selects it in the Objects list.
3. In the Objects list, select the object with which you want to associate a link and click the Add Link button.
The Modify Attributes – Add Link dialog box opens. This is a version of the Resource Manager’s Link/Xref tab.
4. Use the Modify Attributes – Add Link dialog box to create the link just as you would any other type of link.
You can link to targets in the same or another topic, other intelligent graphics, or web pages.
5. Click Modify when you are done defining the link.
The link is added to the Links table on the Update Graphic Object Links dialog box.
6. Click OK.
The Update Graphic Object Links dialog box closes, and the link is associated with the object in the intelligent graphic. You can click on the associated object in the Arbortext IsoView control to activate the link.
