I have created 2 different chapters in advanced editor. Each as a page in it. I want to link the pages, but they are in different chapters. For some reason, it won't work when I select the destination as "Chapter".  How do you create a link like this? Help.

Yes. However, it still doesn't work... although this may be because I'm trying to link 2 pages that are not start pages.

 

Pretty sure that means you will want to use $DEST:=@P#

# being the number ID of the page you want.
:= meaning "set to"
DEST is destination.
$ means script.
@P means AT PAGE

To my limited knowledge anyway.
So what you want to do is:
- Go to page you want to link, then make a link leading to any where.
- Click script button and make it so that $DEST:=@P3 (or whatever your page ID is)
-- This means when the link is clicked, the DESTINATION becomes @P3. So you don't go where you set it but where the script tells you to.

Make sure to set the script so you can use it. At the bottom of Story Properties (the leftmost tab). Since by default you have scripting turned off.


IF this doesn't work I am sure someone else can point out what I done wrong and help you out.
BUT you can always look at the Help & Info Articles for scripting. I am pretty sure at least one tells you how to do this.
