I want to disable these link highlights, which addan outline to the link and open Add Link sidebar
Hi @Hemant - I’m not sure how this happens - normally the document links either just take you to the URL or the in document link. I can’t replicate seeing the “Add Link” panel. Is there any way you could share this PDF with me so I can try to replicate this at my end?
try this PDF: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.18902
That loaded just fine for me and I don’t see those outlines around the links. I’m using WebViewer version 0.12.1 can you confirm what version you are using?
I was using version 0.9.0. and tried version 0.12.1 as well, but the issue hasn’t been resolved.
Note: selecting text works fine, but when I drag the cursor to create a rectangle over the PDF, that’s when I see outlines.
Aha - thanks @Hemant I see that now! This appears to be a bug - we will need to update this so that links can’t be selected like that. Thank you for this report - I will log a bug with the engineering team and let you know when we have a fix ready.
Thanks @Jamie_Lemon
