Can I use insert hyperlink from a word on a topic page to glossary term? I am not a programmer and wonder if there is an easy way to do this. I'm using Robohelp 7.

Thanks.

Hi there

If you are thinking you might link to a term inside the Glossary tab or panel, the answer to that is no. It quite simply cannot be done.

The Glossary panel is simply a display method. We cannot link to terms inside it or link from terms in it to elsewhere.

What you can do is to run something called the "Glossary Hotspot Wizard". This is a wizard that will scan your topic content seeking matches to Glossary terms. Where a match is found, a DHTML Expanding Hotspot is created.

Cheers... Rick
