How do I add a hyperlink to a GKPI image so that a user can link to detail data directly from the image?

Thanks

I had requested this functionality when gkpi first came out, but it got marked 'nofix' (S0398520). I would suggest contacting SAS tech support, and letting them know you're interested in this capability - if they know there's enough customer-interest, that might help justify adding this feature in the future.

In the meantime ... the only work-around I know of is to run gkpi and let it create the kpi in an image, and then annotate that image onto a traditional SAS/Graph (proc gslide might be convenient), and use the 'html' variable in the annotated image to implement the html hyperlink. This is kind of a round-about "ugly" way to do it (and quite a challenge to get everything "just right"), but it's the only way that comes to mind.

Here's an example that uses this technique:

Thanks Robert! That's a nice looking dashboard.
You're right though....That is an ugly way to have to get there. I dropped a note to tech support as per your suggestion, to get/keep this on the radar.

I'm hoping that there's an undocumented technique/option that has recently become available to save me from tweaking all that code. I really appreciate you getting me started though.

Thanks again!
