walt.farrell Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 You should add the URL by using Text > Interactive > Insert Hyperlink, then specifying that you're adding a URL. That will format the URL using a Character Text Style of Hyperlink. As soon as you click elsewhere to resume typing, you should automatically be back to whatever Paragraph Text Style you were using before. If that doesn't help, some screenshots and/or a sample .afpub file would be useful for further diagnosis.

ozphoto Posted June 27, 2020 Author Share Posted June 27, 2020 Yes I did, I typed the text then went to text>interactive and created a link and that works. Then I hit return and go to the next line and it thinks I am still doing a url when I want to insert more text Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all else fails, correct the Character text style (after the a icon) and/or Paragraph text style (after the pilcrow icon) shown in the Context Toolbar. (If the system were letting me include images today I'd provide a screenshot.)

walt.farrell Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 If it's working in a new document but failing in your current document I'm not sure what the issue might be. But I'd want to see the actual document rather than guessing. You could perhaps save a copy of the .afpub file, and delete all but one problematic page, and (if the problem still happens) share that .afpub document with us.

I think you may be getting stuck because of the use of No Style.

ozphoto Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 The minute I hit return it still thinks I am doing a hyperlink, I can check any box like No Style etc and it turns right back into a hyperlink. I think I will just redo the 4 page doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
