Hello Forum and Tracker Support Team,
for large PDF documents, especially those containing many internal links, displaying the links in the Links Pane can take quite a long time. For example, I have many documents where each document can contain thousands of internal links:
In this case, listing all links in the Links Pane can take several minutes. It seems that for listing the links, every time the text under the link (i.e. the link "Title") has to be read in again, which is time consuming.
If pages are then added to the document, for example, or pages are deleted from the document, then a large portion of the links are re-read each time, which again can take minutes.
Perhaps there is a way to store (or at least cache, as long as the document is not closed) all properties of a link, especially the location and the page text associated with each link, along with the link in the future?
This way, listing thousands of links in the Links Pane could then perhaps be as near-instant as listing thousands of comments in the Comments Pane, for example:
Thank you very much for consideration of this feature request.
Kind regards
David
