Hyperlinks site view

The Hyperlinks view in the Web Site window shows a diagram of all files that link to a selected file or that are linked from a selected file. You can set different viewing options and use the diagram to verify hyperlinks to external files.

The diagram represents broken links, including hyperlinks and file references, by an arrow with a shaft that's split in two, and represents links that aren't broken or that are unverified by an arrow with a solid shaft.
