Adding text and creating links

The District Administrator can use objects to add text, create headers, and add links. PowerSchool SMS has two types of objects:

= Text Object: Made up of lines of text. Typically, a District Administrator adds a Text Object to create a header, provide users with additional information about how to navigate through a page, or to act as a placeholder for a hyperlink [>>].
= Link Object: Appears on a panel as a hyperlink. A Link Object can provide a link to a Web page, a report, or a custom page in PowerSchool SMS [>>]. A Link Object can also provide a link to an external application [>>].

Note: You cannot add objects to a panel in a custom schema if the schema is locked [>>].
