Linking from one element to another in a spark board

​@SvenBell Thanks for this post and for taking time to describe what you’re hoping to do. Unfortunately, a shape that behaves dynamically in that way isn’t currently supported in Lucidchart. I wonder if you might be able to utilize a master page to help you do this. You can create any elements that you’d reuse across pages on the master, then apply that master to the pages that need that information. Then, if and when you need to make updates, you can simply do so on the master page, which will in turn push those changes onto any page to which the master is applied. Give it a try, and let me know if you have additional questions!

Hi Micah, Thanks for trying, master idea would only work in limited situations. Hopefully Lucid  can add this ability in the near future.
thank you

This functionality has been something I've been missing for a while.

I can't get the work around from above working since I've already shared a link to the board to a colleague the share button is just a link button now.

Use case: 

Have a lot of items that are added divided into categories, now each of those items needs a bunch more information, if this information is added to the current items it becomes to cluttered. But it is not enough information to create a whole new board, I would also need nearly 200 of them this way.

Really hope an intuitive solution is found quickly. Although I do not have a lot of hope since this thread has been going on for 3 years.

Hi Lucid Team,

Is there an update on this functionality?
The ability to easily share links to specific views for guests would be amazing.
Also the ability to link from one document to a specific element or view in another document would be a massive user experience boost.

Thank you!

I’m making an interactive journey using this linking method and the current solution is ok but it could be more user friendly and presentable when compared to Miro. 

I’ve created this example in Lucid: Green sticky (which has to be encased in a frame) links to pink sticky. It has an icon of a link which I have to click and then click the link URL again to be sent to the pink sticky. 

In comparison to Miro: Green sticky seamlessly linked to pink sticky with a simple arrow to show that on click, you’ll navigate to the next element. This would make linking between elements much simpler and cleaner when it needs to be used by people who have not set up the file but can still navigate around it easily.

Thanks

Hi ​@ashelliot and ​@BrandMinded, 

Thank you for adding to these posts and providing your insights. This idea is under future consideration which means that the product development team isn’t currently working on this but might revisit in the future. 

When an idea receives this status, it can have a few reasons:

• Technical limitations: an idea might have technical dependencies we need to address before it can be implemented.
• Impact: this community is full of good, thoughtful ideas. However, sometimes the time investment to implement an idea might be too significant compared to the idea’s impact, or the product development team could realize other, more impactful or requested ideas at the same time.

This status definitely doesn’t mean this idea won’t be implemented though, and we encourage you to continue voicing your feedback here and within the community.
