Target audience:
Users who want to delete hyperlinks from the Description screen, whether they’re text-based or image-based.

Core purpose:

Ways to remove a hyperlink

Option 1: Delete using the keyboard

• If the hyperlink is not editable, it behaves like a single character.
  • Select it and press BACKSPACE or DELETE.
• If the hyperlink is editable, simply delete the hyperlink text as you would regular text.

Option 2: Delete using the context menu

1. Place your cursor on the hyperlink (text or image).
2. Right-click and select Remove Hyperlink.

What happens after deletion

• Text hyperlink: The link is removed, and the text becomes plain text (unless deleted via keyboard).
• Image hyperlink: The hyperlink is removed, but the image remains.
• The relationship between the topics is deleted. If the same hyperlink appears multiple times, only one relationship entry is shown in the Relationships screen.

Important notes

• Removing a hyperlink only deletes the reference to the topic, not the content itself.
• Use the keyboard method if you want to fully remove both the link and its display text.
