Hyperlinks for sheets do not work, when the sheet is exported to a pdf.
However it does work when exported to excel. Any reason for this ?
Hi Mohammed,
I tested this on my end and found that when exporting a sheet with a hyperlink to PDF the hyperlink will work if it is displayed as the URL, but it will not appear as blue. I understand how this could be confusing. I’d be happy to pass this feedback along to our product team.
I hope this helps!
Kind regards,
Alejandra
@Alejandra : When a displayed URL wraps around in the PDF export, the hyperlink is broken.
When clicking on the link, I see the browser only registers the 1st line of the hyperlink.
For example: If my hyperlink was "https://ThisismyreallyLonghyperlink.com/somethingelse/bla/bla/bla"
The PDF Export would display that value in multiple lines as expected. Something like:
https://ThisismyreallyLonghyp
erlink.com/somethingelse/bla/
bla/bla
When cilcking on the link, the browser only sees "https://ThisismyreallyLonghyp" as the hyperlink.
As a workaround, we could export first to Excel. And then print to PDF from Excel or whatever spreadsheet tool the user uses. But ideally, Smartsheet should fix the hyperlink export to support multiple lines.
Thanks.
I am currently setting up an automation for people to get notified through their email, when they are prompted. But is there a way that they can reply in the email of a comment that will then go to the specific sheet. This way they do not have access to the sheet, but can just comment through email with updates?
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
