example pdf with object data
When viewing PDFs with embedded metadata (Object Data), such as those exported
from KiCad or other CAD software, URLs contained within the Object Data
properties menu/panel are displayed as plain text. Clicking these URLs does
nothing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a PDF containing Object Data (e.g. a schematic from KiCad as the
attached one)
2. Open the "Object Data" menu/panel by left-clicking on a component (e.g.
FCPB1 on page 2)
3. Left-click on the HelpURL entry
OBSERVED RESULT
The menu is closed and no browser is launched.
EXPECTED RESULT
The browser is launched, possibly first asking for permission depending on the
user settings as normal URLs.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
