Inter-page linking
Elements in a drawing can be linked to a specific page in the same document. This helps user define the UI flow when creating application or website mockups.
Linkings defined in a document are converted into HTML hyper-links when the document is exported into web format. This process creates an interactive version of the mockup in which viewers can see a simulated flow when clicking on the UI elements.
