Hidden Link

Is there a way to make a link hidden, only accessible through the editor. Example, if I want to make a chance of choosing x or y
(either:"x","y")
and make the links for x and y, how do you hide the actual links, so that only the 'either' link appears?

  • You need to state which Story Format you are using when you ask a question, as answers can be different for each one. Based on the syntax of your example I am going to assume you are using Harlowe.

    I am a little confused by your question but I think you are asking how to show the Reader a link that does not include the target passage name in it's text.

    A markup link consists of two parts: the Link Text shown to the Reader; and the Target Passage Name to navigate the Reader to if that link is selected.
    [[Link Text->Target Passage Name]]
    
    [[either->(either: "x", "y")]]
    

    note: The Twine 2 application's Auto-create Missing Linked Passages feature does not understand what to do with advance markup links like yours (eg. (either:"x","y")) so it will incorrectly create a redundant Passage which in your case will be one with a name of (either:"x","y"). You will need to manually delete these passages.
