Exclude items from broken link report

Post by Niels »

Can we exclude certain broken links from the Project Analysis broken link report?

We have local links to PDF files in each manual's "Applicable documents" section. They are supposed to work if a customer puts all of the PDF manuals in one directory and this works well. However, Flare reports all of these as broken links, which we would like to avoid to better identify "really relevant" broken links.

I could imagine that it would be possible to put all PDFs in some expected location in our Flare project folder but I do not fancy this workaround since it would disrupt other processes and these PDF artefacts would also be irritating in combination with source control.

But might there be a way to somehow tag the acceptable broken links so they are ignored?

We can't. But I'd heartily second a request to be able to do so!
