Helper IIReferencing a web URL in a field parameter
Hi,
I habe built a column in one of my tables that contains a web url.
I am trying to refer to it in a field parameter so that the users have the opportunity to display it along with other selected columns.
However, I cannot format it the way I want.
For example, I can't format it into a URL icon (the link is rather long)
Has anyone found a way to do so? Or has any tips or tricks for this?
Thank you
Hi JackWren ,
(1) In Data view, select the column > On the Column tools tab, select Data category > Web URL .
(2) Create a matrix visual > Select the table to make it active > Select the Format icon to open the Formatting tab >
Under Visual > URL icon, select On.

JackWrenI tried it in a table and it works. But for some reason, it doesn't work in a matrix.
