OK, thank you explaining, it  sounds interesting. Just so I'm clear, can you please explain what you mean by hyperlink? Your definition of a hyperlink may not be the same as mine. Please also provide 1 or 2 real life true examples of what your hyperlinks are and how a hyperlink is activated by the reader or user.

 

I am guessing the words Rock and Trees, as you have described, have clickable hyperlinks attached to them. A hyperlink will appear in a call-out when you hover your cursor over 'Rock' or 'Trees' and disappears when your cursor is moved away. Is that correct? You want the call-out with the hyperlink to remain without disappearing or be easily read because hovering your cursor is a PITA. Is that also correct?  

 

You also mention you use a program, not AutoCad but something else that works with AutoCad, which generates the hyperlink. I'm not clear whether that same program does all items listed below or just a combination of them.

  1. generates a block that you specify
  2. puts that block in the correct spot in your drawing--because placing them manually takes too much time
  3. labels the block with a letter such as A or B or Q or R etc.
  4. places a word such as Rock or Trees or Grass etc. next to the block
  5. attaches a hyperlink to Rock or Trees 

If all of the above is true, or part of it is true, then that's a lot of data and Plain vanilla AutoCad may not be a suitable program for this specific task. Many, including me, have done this type of attach-a-lot-of-data-type-work many times. Do you use Vanilla AutoCad or do you use one of the Cad verticals such as Map3D or Civil3D?
