Hi,

Lines created by the text line factory are static and do not support user interaction. You'd have to use the standard flow composer.

Hi,

You'll need to use a LinkElement.

For your example, the paragraph will contain a SpanElement (for "hi all go to my page ") and a LinkElement (with the href set to "http://www.dd.com"). The LinkElement itself will contain a SpanElement for the URL display text ("http://www.dd.com")
