The updated PDF New Drawings Viewer (Beta) in Procore supports system-generated hyperlinks on construction drawings, enabling one-click navigation to referenced Drawings without losing your current view position. System hyperlinks are organized on a dedicated layer, keeping them cleanly separated from user-created markups.

Things to Consider

  • Dedicated Hyperlinks Layer: All system-generated links are located under a read-only Hyperlinks layer within the markups panel.

  • Protected System Links: System-generated hyperlinks are read-only and cannot be edited or deleted.

  • Layer Visibility Toggle: You can toggle the visibility of the hyperlinks layer on or off to hide link markers during drawing review.

  • Markups Separation: Hyperlinks sit on their own dedicated layer, keeping them separate from private and public user markups.

  • PDF Export Behavior: Downloading a drawing using the Download with Markups option retains all active hyperlinks in the exported file.

Prerequisites

  • 'Read Only' level permissions or higher on the project's Drawings tool.

  • The drawing must contain system-generated or embedded reference links.

Steps

Open and Navigate a Drawing Hyperlink

  1. Navigate to the project's Drawings tool.

  2. Click the drawing you want to view.

  3. Click a hyperlink marker directly on the drawing.

    • The referenced PDF document opens in a new browser tab.

Toggle Hyperlink Visibility

  1. Open a drawing in the New Drawings Viewer (Beta).

  2. Click the My Markups icon to open the markups panel.

  3. Locate the Hyperlinks section.

  4. Click the eye icon next to Hyperlinks to show or hide link markers on the drawing.

Note: System-generated links are stored under the System Generated group within the Hyperlinks layer and cannot be edited.
