Thanks Bob,

I got it working in my

Hi
David,

No,
there is no parameter for that.  Seems like a good idea, though.  In
the current stylesheets, you would need to customize the template named
'make.olink.href', which generates the href value.  If the value from this
template comes back empty, then you just get the olink text without a hot
link.  You would need to make the output of the template conditional on
$targetdoc = $current.docid.

Avoiding hot links in olinks to other docs

 

Hi there,

I would like to set up olinking so that when I generate
certain output formats (pdf, webhelp) olinks to the same document are
hyperlinks (just as if they were xrefs) but olinks to other documents only show
the title of the section and document name, but are not hyperlinks. For these
formats, the user won’t have the target doc in a predictable place. I looked
around and couldn’t find a parameter to disable hyperlinks to external olinks.
Is this something that’s already supported? 

 

Thanks,

David
