Description

Starts the insertion of clickable text for a RichText element. Any text appended with Panel:AppendText between this call and Panel:InsertClickableTextEnd will become clickable text.

The hook PANEL:OnTextClicked is called when the text is clicked.

The clickable text is a separate Derma panel which will not inherit the current font from the RichText.

Arguments

1 string signalValue
The text passed as the action signal's value.
