Hi,
is it possible to include a hyperlink on a 3d object?
or
what code in c# is required to set up a hyperlink 'on click' (for a button)?
thank you very much
(hyperlinks should be able to be added via a panel in EID rather than
manually)
You could style a lable to look like a hyperlink and add that element to your object. You may want to consider using the make button tool if you need the click functionality or use a mouse down event for other elements.
In the back end, you want to call the Process class to start an external process or to launch IE and go to a given URL.
In your code, just remember to add the following using statement:
using System.Diagnostics;
and then in the click handler you can do something like this:

Yes.. this is because your web server probably does not allow you the rights to spawn new processes, as opposed to running on your own box where you have all the permissions in the world.
When looking at Hyperlinking from an XBAP there are a few thinks that need to be taken into consideration. Firstly, the sandbox requires that the user intiate a direction change which means that you can not just make the user navigate to a new site, you have to provide them with an object in real terms that has some understanding of the being activated by the user or programatically. It would appear that the Hyperlink class funny enough is about the only one that has this feature.
You might want to have a look at the Hyperlink class, but for now you could try adding the following to your Markup which should give you a Hyperlink that will work in an XBAP when added to a FlowDocument:
This is probably not what you want though as the Hyperlink is part of the System.Windows.Document class and it can not be sub-classed for security reasons in an internet sandbox. This means that you have two choices, you can provide a document on your XBAP that contains the hyperlink (Hyperlink is an Inline element) or you can can be real sneaky and create a derived ContentControl with a Textblock embedded in it. Then you could create a Style which uses the ContentControl and away you go, you have a Style that you can assign to UIElements that is XBAP hyperlinkable....
Let me know if you really want to go down this root as it is a bit of a mess trying to put it together in here...
