a.pngHi,

i want to make a row into a hypelink in power by so that it goes directly to it's specific link using a column. Is it possible or we can just do that on Values by using conditional Formatting?

Like in the below screen shot i want to make the statemnet "Ongoing improvement ...." as a hyperlink

also have created a column with hyperlinks to each of these tasks

 
 

Thanks in advance

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can click on the column name which has your link value in it and choose a 'Data Category' of 'Web URL'

This will display the URL in your matrix visual as a hyperlink

You can change the link to an Icon by choosing this option

and this will change the display in the matrix visual to

Heres the example file the screengrabs are from.

 

Hopefully this answers your question.

Cheers,

Richard

@Anonymous yes you can do that, if a column value contains a valid url, change column data category to web url by selecting the column and going to column tools page, once it is done, it will show as a link to table/matrix visual
