Use Reference to make internal references or links in a presentation, useful if there is a need to refer to another slide and make it easily accessible by adding a link to this slide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syntax<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Place the Reference<\/code> binding surrounding the word or sentence that should have a link\/reference to another slide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<<Reference:ReferencePath>...<Reference>><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Parameters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
ReferencePath<\/strong>: Key defined in the data. The value in the JSON is used to make a connection to the slide. The value of the key needs to be a string, integer, or float value. The value must<\/strong> be unique from other ReferencePath<\/code>s and will only be used as a connection ID. This also means that this value will not be visible in the presentation. The ReferencePath<\/code> in the notes will be removed on generated documents.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the slide that the link should jump to, place the ReferencePath<\/code> in the “notes” section on the slide as seen below. If more references are needed, the paths should be separated with a line break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
#-- DocuMotor-References --#\nReferencePath\n#-- DocuMotor-References-End --#<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Notes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The general logic for creating reference links to specific slides is to create a link that points to a slide with a specific ID. That means that the link should know which slide ID it is pointing to. To apply the ID to the targeted slide the ReferencePath<\/code> in the notes is relevant since this is where the value from the ReferencePath<\/code> is defined as the slide’s unique ID. The ReferencePath<\/code> defined in the Reference binding should be the JSON path to a value that is identical to the value of the ReferencePath<\/code> defined in the notes of the targeted slide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Example<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Below is an example of how a list of references link to specific slides, where both list and slides are dynamically generated with the List<\/a> and Repeat<\/a> bindings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
