I can't find the answer to this anywhere. I have a graphic in my indesign document. I applied a hyperlink to it. Now I want to remove the hyperlink without removing the graphic. How can I do that? The only thing I can find on removing hyperlinks is from 2011 and it's a script.

I think what you're describing is a straightforward thing to fix.

 

If you go to the Windows menu, select Interactive, then Hyperlinks. You'll see the Hyperlinks window. If you then select your object you'll see the hyperlink in the Hyperlinks window highlighted. Once you've got it highlighted click the trash can to delete it.

These guys don't know what they are talking about.

You need to delete the line and retype it.

You have to remove the underline, and change the text color back to your paragraph style. Windows>Interactive>Hyperlinks is correct.
This simply unlinks the text, it does not return the text to it original styling.

Thank you. I wasn't finding it and I wasn't finding the answer either.

I see Interactive and Hyperlinks as two different menu items, and in the hyperlinks menu there is no trash can. What am I not seeing?
