Insert Hyperlink inserts clickable text that contains one of three available hyperlink types. Hovering the mouse over hyperlinked text causes the hyperlink's URL (i.e., the hyperlink's destination address) to be displayed. A hyperlink is activated by clicking it while pressing the Ctrl key, or by pressing the Enter key while the text cursor is positioned in the hyperlink. This behavior can be modified via advanced setting Simple Hyperlink Clicks.

Jarte provides a choice of three different hyperlink types:

Web Hyperlink

A web hyperlink contains a URL to a web page. Clicking the hyperlink while pressing the Ctrl key opens the web page in your web browser.

File Hyperlink

A file hyperlink contains a URL to a file located on your computer. Clicking the hyperlink causes different behavior depending the type of file pointed to by the hyperlink. The possible behaviors are described in the following table:

File Type

Action

Document (i.e., RTF, DOC, or TXT file)

Opens the document in Jarte

Program (i.e., EXE or BAT file)

Starts the indicated program

Folder

Opens a "Windows Explorer" window to the indicated folder

Other file types

Opens the program associated with the file type

Jump to is optional text used to indicate a position within the hyperlinked document file. When the document is opened via the hyperlink Jarte will automatically scroll down to the first occurrence of the text specified by Jump to.

The This Doc button is used to indicate the file hyperlink is to point to the same document file that contains the hyperlink. This is useful when used with Jump to as a means of instantly jumping to another location within the same document.

The Files button makes it easy to specify the file path of a currently open file or a recently opened file via a selection menu.

E-mail Hyperlink

An e-mail hyperlink contains an e-mail address. Clicking the hyperlink while pressing the Ctrl key opens a new, empty e-mail window addressed to the specified recipient.
