How do I set InDesign hyperlinks to open a new tab in browser

[dw62059930]

Hi

I am trying to work out how to set InDesign hyperlinks to open a new tab in a browser. It is not convenient for me to recreate or edit the links in Acrobat as we have alot of links within documents, so I am looking for an InDesign solution.

Kind regards

Daniel

Hi Daniel, 

I am afraid, InDesign doesn't have this option right now. Please share this as a feature request here ( https://indesign.uservoice.com/ ).

This forum is directly monitored by our developers, they might look into implementing it in future releases.

Regards,

Hi Srishti

Thanks for the feedback, I have added the request to the forum as suggested. Hopefully this is something that can be incorporated quickly as it seems like a simple feature that would benefit alot of people. As it stands I have to use an ugly flipbook software method which seems a bit dated but does allow this feature as standard.

Regards

Danel

Give link to your request on uservoice here. And somebody who likes your idea will add "plus" if knows where your post.

Scratch that - I was thinking of something else - apologies.

That's fine, I tried it just in case it worked.
