Features
PowerLink works just like ArcViewВ’s standard Hotlink tool, but with several powerful enhancements:
- Hotlink to any type of file. PowerLink opens the file in its native application. That means you can hotlink to Microsoft Office documents, Adobe Acrobat filesВ—anything! You can even link to Windows Help files, sound files or an Internet URL
address.
- Improved image viewer. Images are the most common type of file to hotlink to. Unfortunately, the standard ArcView image viewer is quite limited. PowerLink lets you hotlink to any ArcView supported image file, including JPEGs, displays them quickly in high resolution, and provides tools for panning and zooming.
- Link to many files at once. You can click on a single feature and hotlink to several different files at the same time, like a spreadsheet, a text file and an image file. Your hotlinks can be stored in a single field or in several different fields of your themeВ’s attribute databaseВ—whatever is most convenient.
- Hotlink to data entry form. Updating theme attribute data has never been easier. Simply click on the feature and type in the attribute. Or, pick from a list of existing unique field valuesВ—you wonВ’t even need to use your keyboard!
- Relative path names. Forget typing in cumbersome directory paths for every hotlink file. Just enter the file name as the hotlink. PowerLink lets you setup one or more system search paths to find your files.
- Hotlink multiple themes. You can specify whether to link to just the active
theme(s), or to any themes in your view having an established hotlinkВ—especially useful for novice users or kiosks.
- Selective hotlinking. Temporarily disable hotlinking for a field. Useful when you have many different hotlinks but want to focus on only a single type.
- Link to attribute. A message box displaying a theme attribute value provides an alternate method of displaying data from the standard Identify tool. Useful for kiosk applications.
- Customizable. PowerLink lets you modify its interface and can be password-protected so you can use it to build custom applications. You can even write your own custom hotlink actions using Avenue that take advantage of PowerLinkВ’s enhanced features.
