adding hyperlinked text to pdf plot
Sorry I experimented with tikzDevice using \href{}{} but failed.
You can probably try the old image hotspot technique in HTML. I
remember someone did this before in R, but I cannot find the link to
the work now. The key is your need to use the two functions grconvertX
and grconvertY.

For example, say I am plotting some data that is genomic and therefore maps to a specific locus on the human genome, like a gene. ?I was hoping to have the title of the plot display the gene name, but have it be a link so that clicking on it would take you to those coordinates on a public browser, like USCS's genome browser. ?So basically, I was hoping to have text in a plot generated by R function as a normal html-style link. - Fincher On Mon, Dec 5, 2011 at 14:09, Yihui Xie <xie at yihui.name> wrote:
It seems I missed the context of this post -- who is "you", and what is "something other than the URL"? I feel the tikzDevice package should be an option for the task.

Howdy, ? I have read that if you put a URL in the text of a plot being saved into pdf, the result is a functional hyperlink. I am interested in having text in a plot that is linked to a URL, but I would like the text to be something other than the URL. Is this possible? Thank you. - Fincher
