So I have this awesome pdf spec book chalked full of internal and external hyperlinks. What I would like to do is create to URL parameters for my model elements. One that ties the elements to my spec book and another that ties them to the manufacturers websites and things of that nature. The problem is I do not know how to get my URLs to translate to hyperlinks in my PDF, DWF, HTML and so on. I at least can get the url to appear in the properties of the element in my DWFs but it is not an active hyperlink. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or is this just not possible?

I appreciate the help! sorry wasn't tryin to be a jerk. Hopefully someday soon crtl+click will be a feature of Revit. I use to love it in ADT as we would link our keynotes to our spec book. Now i just have to do it manually.

How were you able to get the URL to show up in the element properties in the DWF? I have set up a shared parameter under Identity Data but it does not show up in the DWF.
Thanks
