DrAlex Member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 13, 2015 #1 Hello, I would like to embed a hyperlink in a text (e.g., in a label), so that the displayed text is different from the address, like in Anywhere Software. I have tried Linkify, but it seems to be able only to convert URLs, like https://www.b4x.com, to links, without any option to change the displayed text. If there is no ready way to do what I want, I would like to understand what's going on under the hood of Android hyperlinks. Surely, there must be a way to simulate that in B4A. Thanks, Alex
