Multi-column layout and Hyperlinks Bug

Jul 27, 2012 12:06 AM

Hi,

 

In a german forum, someone found a bug about having hyperlinks in a multi-column layout. All Hyperlinks starting the second column do not work. In between more people (me included) can confirm this bug in v20 and v21. You have to create single frames to get it work.

Please Adobe representatives, forward this bug report to the engineers.

 

 

Thanks

Yves

    Hi, Yves!
    As I already wrote on that German forum, I can confirm that bug for InDesign CS5.5 and v20 DPS. Did not test in newer version.

     

    What perplexed me is, that if I go to the Adobe "Feature Request/Bug Report Form" site there is no way to address a bug directly to DPS or a specific DPS version:

     

    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

     

    Is there another web site for that purpose?

     

    Uwe

    Hi Uwe,

     

    I did the tests today with CS5.5 and CS6, a v20 folio and a v21 folio. Always the same result/bug.

    The "Feature Request/Bug Report Form" site has an entry for DPS and its version:

    I mentionned it here in the forum as I do not know if and and how reliable the bug report form will be read by the responsible staff at Adobe.

    Thank you, Yves!
    Did I looked under InDesign or was it the upcoming heat in my office that I did not catch it?

     

    I will file a bug report…

    This is the probably the most monitored of the user forums by Adobe personnel, but I would still file the bug report. I very rarely use hyperlinks and opt for buttons instead. I've found hyperlinks a bit wonky.

     

    BTW, one thing to try...do not use shared hyperlink destinations.

    @Bob – I already filed a bug report.

    Also tried not to use "shared hyperlink destinations".

     

    The bug is still there…

    I heard back from the tester. This issue will be fixed in the next release (v22), which is scheduled for August 7.
