Dynamic URL and mxLink Properties

These properties configure dynamic URL and mxLink when entered in text boxes.

If you want to change the default values, enter your changes in the emxSystem.properties page object. For more information, see Editing Properties Using MQL.

Property Name Property Description Valid Values
emxFramework.DynamicURLEnabled When true, users can enter URLs in free-form text boxes, such as description fields, and the app displays it as a hyperlink. When clicked, the link opens a new browser window. This feature also allows objects to be inserted as hyperlinks using the mxLink function.

When set to false, the URL is displayed as text and does not function as a link. URLs must be entered in the formats entered for the emxFramework.DynamicURL.Keywords property.

True or False
emxFramework.DynamicURL.URLKeywords Defines the keywords that, when found in a text field, indicate the start of a URL and will be converted to a hyperlink. You can delete keywords, but you cannot add additional keywords. Comma-separated list of any of these keywords:
  • http://
  • https://www.
  • mailto:
emxFramework.DynamicURL.RevisionFieldLimit Defines the number of characters in the revision level after which the revision value is hidden in the mxLink hyperlink. For example, an mxLink usually shows as Part P-5000 1 (Type Name Revision). The default limit is 8, so if the revision level contains more than 8 characters, such as 000451104, only the type and name show in the mxLink: Part P-5000.Positive integer.
