Enable linking to Pages/Views/Objects within a diagram

Hi Luke! Two possible tools come to mind here. 

1. In Lucidspark, you can put a Frame around the items you want to link to, and use the Link to Frame tool to generate a URL directly to that frame. If you have a Lucidspark license, it should be possible to switch between the products using Universal Canvas.
2. If the frames are cluttering things up too much, you can highlight a set of items and use the Share functionality with the Link to current selection option selected under Additional Settings. The URL will then have a parameters similar to view_items=8I3JV-5W-ZH6[...]

Let me know how these work out for you!

In our Visio implementation, we use links to a corresponding shape on another tab/page. These links are object-based and reciprocal. Sadly, Lucidchart doesn’t support this functionality.

1. When I have multiple “entry points” to the page, the object-based link ensures viewers know exactly where the flow picks up. We can use line styling to help differentiate these entry points, but there may not be enough practical variations (within the context of our documentation standards), and well, people don’t always pay attention or pick up on those details.
2. Every time I create a link, I now have to create an additional link back to the source page. This becomes very time consuming when you have dozens of links in a multi-tab document.

Same as above:

1. Have diagrams that are up to 50 tabs in size with hundreds of objects per page. As such linking to a page is too limiting.
2. The diagrams need to have as little clutter as possible, as already highly complex. Any object should have some tag/label/anchor that one or many other objects from various other tabs can be linked to it.
3. This is basic functionality in visio and draw.io so odd that it does not exist in LucidCharts
