All:
The hotspot behaviour in generated lists is user-unfriendly but works well
for cross-references and index page numbers. A possible fix involving
FrameScript follows:
@ Create a new character format where all properties are set to
null.
@ Create a FrameScript event script
I'm not sure whetehr to call it a bug or not, but it's definitely a known
problem. Anytime there is a character font change in the text of a link in
the FM file, the link ends at that point. And of the text that includes the

This is _neither_ a "bug" _nor_ a "known problem." To reiterate what
What Richard says is true, but this designed behavior is not very useful for
generated lists. For generated lists, it would have been better to have a
mechanism that would ignore character property changes and make the whole
paragraph a link.

For those interested, there is a possible FrameScript solution that would
solve the problem in PDFs. A script could go through the TOC and look for
lines with character property changes. It would duplicate the first
Hypertext marker and insert it whereever there is a character property
change.
