Hi @tordr,

If you have a limited number of URL that you want to display as text, then I would suggest using the AttributeValueMapper to create a new attribute (text) to populate the shapefile attribute values.

Another approach would be to use conditional statements in an AttributeCreator or AttributeManager.

Hope this helps,

Itay
