TBX Tip: Copying & editing embedded RTF links

In the $Text highlight the linked text, and only the linked text, and then ctrl+click. This this will open up a pop-up menu. Select the Edit Link menu and the edit link pop-up will open. From this pop-up you can copy the link destination (aka link) or remove it.

Acknowledgement: I learned this tip from Sumner Gerard @sumnerg.

Let everyone know in which version of MacOS and Tinderbox this is possible

I think this is fine in at least 8+, maybe earlier, can’t be sure. As for macOS I don’t know there either. Maybe @sumnerg does.

I’m on v. 8.9.2 running on Big Sur 11.3.

I think it was working on Catalina but can’t test that.

I believe @mwra said the Edit Link... does not appear in the contextual menu in an earlier version of the MacOS.

It certainly is not there in Mojave 10.14.6

This feature doesn’t work on Catalina on 8.9.2

It works fine on Big Sur on 8.9.2
