How do I associate point features with files or web links? |
|
Using Global Mapper v6.08 and later, you can treat any attribute/value pair associated with any vector feature (like point features) as either a link to a file on your local computer or a link to a web site. So to add a link, just create an attribute/value pair for the feature by first selecting the Feature Info tool, then clicking on the point feature, then pressing the Edit Feature button to bring up the edit dialog. On the edit dialog, add an attribute with a value that is either the filename or full URL to the web site, then press OK to return to the Feature Info dialog. Then, simply right click on the attribute/value pair in the Feature Info dialog and select the appropriate option from the popup menu to either open the value as a file or as a web link. If you already have the attributes assigned, there is of course no need to add them.
