The buffer format help can be accessed via first opening the raw
buffer viewer (e.g. from the actions section on the texture viewer),
and then clicking the "?" under saved formats. It includes a nice
summary of the format syntax, but says that "Exhaustive documentation
can be found in the online docs." That was supposed to include a link
to https://renderdoc.org/docs/how/how_buffer_format.html, and in fact
it renders as if it were link, but clicking on it did nothing.
This has been fixed by adding `Qt::LinksAccessibleByMouse` and
`Qt::LinksAccessibleByKeyboard` to `textInteractionFlags`, and also
setting `openExternalLinks` to true (which requires use of a
`QTextBrowser` instead of a `QTextEdit`). I left the full list of flags
as `Qt::TextBrowserInteraction` does not include the
`TextSelectableByKeyboard` flag (which seems useful here and was
included before).
I verified that other uses of links work properly via checking all of
them found via `git grep href`:
* CaptureContext: Uses `QMessageBox` which defers to the style's `SH_MessageBox_TextInteractionFlags` which in practice has at least `Qt::LinksAccessibleByMouse`:
* https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/v5.15.11-lts-lgpl/src/plugins/styles/mac/qmacstyle_mac.mm#L2850-L2852
* https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/v5.15.11-lts-lgpl/src/widgets/styles/qcommonstyle.cpp#L5303-L5305
* https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/v5.15.11-lts-lgpl/src/widgets/styles/qfusionstyle.cpp#L3702-L3703
* AboutDialog: sets `openExternalLinks` to true on the `version` and `contact` labels in the ui file
* AnalyticsConfirmDialog and AnalyticsPromptDialog: uses `on_label_linkActivated` as an automatic slot (as it needs custom handling for opening the documented analytics report)
* SettingsDialog: uses `on_analyticsDescribeLabel_linkActivated` as an automatic slot (and only has an internal link for opening the documented analytics report)
* CrashDialog: several different ones:
* captureFilename works via `on_captureFilename_linkActivated` as an automatic slot (and opens a file in explorer)
* reportText has `openExternalLinks` in the ui file
* on_send_clicked uses `RDDialog::information` with an email address, which uses `QMessageBox` (see CaptureContext)
* finishedText has `openExternalLinks` in the ui file
* ExtensionManager: sets `openExternalLinks` to true on the `URL` and `author` labels in the ui file
* TipsDialog: sets `openExternalLinks` to true on the `tipUrlLabel` label in the ui file
* nv_counter_enumerator.cpp: sets `openExternalLinks` to true on the `counterDescription` label in PerformanceCounterSelection.ui
