    error.handled = true;
}

TXTextControl.textParts.getMainText(function(mainText) {
    const hypertextLinks = mainText.hypertextLinks;
    hypertextLinks.getItem(function(hypertextLink) {
        if (!hypertextLink) {
            console.warn("No hypertext link is available at the current input position.");
            return;
        }
    
        hypertextLink.setTarget(
            "https://www.example.com/invoices/2026",
            function() {
                console.log("set target completed.");
            },
            onTxError
