Live URL in text boxes

Post by sundog »

I want to place web URLs in text boxes. Once the URL is placed in the text box and selected I can't make the link 'live' because Insert > Hyperlink... is greyed out.

Is there a way around this?

Right now the answer appears to be "no." If you make your live url in the main body of a Mellel document or a separate application such as TextEdit and copy it into a text box, the link goes dead.

Eyal has confirmed that "you can't insert any inlines into a text box" at present.
