I can't figure out how to use hyperlinks within rich text labels, i've tried to add bbcode to it, e.g. "Press here", where "here" is an hyperlink set with [url=http://www.google.com/]here[/url], and use a meta signal interrupt like so:
func _on_RichTextLabel_meta_clicked( meta ):
print("1")
if meta == "here":
print("2")
OS.shell_open("http://www.google.com/")
But without any success so far
Which version of Godot are you using?
The following works for me (Godot 3.0.2, Windows 10):
BBCode: [url="https://www.google.com]link[/url]
GDScript:
extends RichTextLabel
func _ready():
connect("meta_clicked", self, "meta_clicked");
func meta_clicked(meta):
OS.shell_open(meta);
You can pass an additional argument(s) in the url as using BBCode like this: [url=,here]Link[/url]. Then you need to do something like this in your RichTextLabel to parse it:
extends RichTextLabel
func _ready():
connect("meta_clicked", self, "meta_clicked");
func meta_clicked(meta):
var data = meta.split(",", true);
if (str(data[1]) == "here"):
OS.shell_open("https://google.com");
Thank you for your reply TwistedTwigleg. I'm using Godot 2.1.4, i've tried the following with some of your handsome tweaks:
` extends RichTextLabel
const bbcode = "By clicking ACCEPT, you accept this app's [url=,https://google.com]Terms & Conditions[/url] and its [url=,https://google.com]Privacy Policy[/url]."
func ready(): set_bbcode(bbcode) connect("meta_clicked", self, "meta_clicked")
func _meta_clicked( meta ): print("&") var data = meta.split(",", true) if (str(data[1]) == "Terms & Conditions"): OS.shell_open("https://google.com") elif (str(data[1]) == "Privacy Policy"): OS.shell_open("https://google.com") `
Still doesn't work though, not entirely sure what i'm missing here.

I just tried your example code on Godot 3.0, it works perfectly. On Godot 2.1.4 however, links don't work.
UPDATE: I accidentally, and idiotically, ticked the Ignore Mouse flag, unchecking that box fixed everything.
No worries, we’ve all been there. I’m glad you got it working!
