Bug: Link Inspector   Enable as hyperlink doesn't lock

How annoying is this:
I have a URL that I'm using in copy for a flyer that is designed to be printed, not distributed electronically. I make sure to deselect the "Enable as hyperlink" in the Link Inspector.
But every time I move, change the point size, or edit the copy block  that the non-enabled url sits, the enable as hyper link gets checked. So you see everytime I must modify that copy block, i must select the URL and go back to the inspector and unclick 'enable as hyperlink'. If I unchecked this same copy once, it should remain unchecked. Problem is that the URL changes to BLUE and then includes an underline.
Not very productive to have to continuously go back. But more annoying is simply trying to select the copy is a challenge because the cursor changes to a hand and then if I don't get the selection exactly accurate, a browser window pops up, creating more clutter and wasting addtional time.
This perhaps should be catalogues as a pet peeve and bug fix, but I'm not sure where to post that.

try it yourself.
create a text box. type www.apple.com, the link won't be active until you deselect and move out of the text box. Once you do, the link will become active.
Now select the www.apple.com link, go to the inspector and disable the enable as link.
Now, go to the text www.apple.com and select it and change the font. Then deselect it and you'll see the link is once again active.
Can you replicate this behaviour at your end?
If your Autocorrection Preferences are set to recognize such links, wouldn't you expect them to re-activate? I would, but I don't think you have said anything about that preference setting.

  • I cannot select the "Enable a hyperlink" in ibooks author. Anybody knows why?

    I selected a word in the document and then followed the instruction to go to Inspector and opened the Link, but Enable a hyperlink was greyed out. Also cannot type anyhing in Add Bookmark. Doyou know why and how to do it right? Thanks.

    One thing comes to mind.
    You created a text box with the words 'Type to enter text' already created within it. You then selected the text and typed to remove the dummy text and create your words. You then selected your word to hyperlink. If you use this process the check box to enable the hyperlink is greyed out and you can't use it.
    under this scenario what you have to do is, when the text box is created, select all the text and press DELETE. Once you press delete, the check box becomes active.
    Hope this helps in some way.

  • Enable as Hyperlink

    So, just recently I have noticed that, when I go into the inspector and the click the link tab and then check the "enable as hyperlink" check box the "Link To" drop down pane remains grayed out and doesn't open, this is a major problem because although I can select something to be a hyperlink, iWeb will not let me open the "link to" pane in-order to link the object to the desired page on my website. So far it looks like the only solution I have found is to check and uncheck the "enable as hyperlink" check box multiple times check box until' finnaly the link to pane works again. This is getting absolutely ridiculous for me to be doing all this extra steps just to hyperlink something.
    So any help one what may be causing this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. I am using iWeb 1.1.2
    Thanks,
    Regards--- jgurbisz

    I just discovered that I am having the same problem. One time I was able to go up to the menu and get it to work, but now that doesn't work either. Using v. 2.0.2.

    hyper link of public image(hyperlink or image) can not be saved on windows server 2012 and sharepoint 2010 problem, is this a bug?
    thanks for any reply.

    It is not a bug, you might be using IE in Windows server 2012 and and browser might be restricting your site actions to respond properly.
    Check this in a different browser or access site in a differ OS.

  • [LR 3.5] An old bug is back : import dialog sometimes doesn't show up

    Hi,
    Sometimes, when I use the Synchronize Folder command or when I click on the Import... button, the Import dialog doesn't show up (sometimes meaning here "very often"). Obviously, the dialog has been loaded because at this time, LR is in a modal state (you can't use any user interface element - you just get a beep when clicking anywhere in the main window). The dialog is here but it is not visible. I'm using a dual monitor setup but the problem also occurs when I de-activate the secondary display.
    I already encountered this bug in previous versions and I thought it had been fixed. Unfortunately, it is back. When this happens, I have to reboot the system to get the Import dialog working correctly again. A logoff / logon is not enough. Killing the LR process doesn't help either. I'm running XP Pro SP3, 3GB of memory, /3GB switch enabled (disabling it doesn't change anything).
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Actually, it can happen that when the Import dialog is in this hidden state, trying to close Lightroom causes a message box to appear : "Do you want to close the Import dialog and quit?" (or something like that). Well, I don't want to close it, I want to see it !

    Fix bug FM-194: Calling seek consecutively doesn't respect the last seek.  The fix is to let each subsequent seek through (previously we blocked a seek attempt if another seek attempt was underway).  Update base unit tests.  Modify ExamplePlayer's scrub bar to seek while you scrub, this is a good way to demo/test this behavior.

  • "My Pages" order in LINK Inspector

    In iWeb, the BLOG page automatically orders the entries by date.
    In the 'Inspector" for the hyperlinks "My Pages" are ordered in a different order. It looks Random.
    Is there a way to reorder them in the Link Inspector?
    This is an issue for me becase the "Next Page" link at the bottom of each blog entry is going to the next entry on the Inspector list, rather than the next one chronologically.
    thanks very much for your help.

    I have not found a way for the email hypertext to go to the FaceBook App, but I no longer click on the hypertext as I know whatever information or posting it is directing me to in FaceBook will show up when I open my FaceBook App.  I also have noticed that many pop-ups on the Browser don't actually know if you already have the software they are promoting.

    I suspect you may have a corrupt photo or image that is causing the sync to fail or quit. You might want to try removing all of your photos by deselecting them in iTunes then sync - and try adding them by each sub-folders until you are able to nail down which sub-folder of photos, that causes the sync to stop or gives you errors.
