mailto link text color

Post by Fredl »

Hi, I'm working on a very simple page, it includes email addresses. I figured it would be convenient if they were "mailto" links, which is simple to apply, what I'd like is to be able to set the color of the text link. WB17 automatically makes them bright blue when I set the text as a link and I can't find where I can edit the link properties, I'd like them to match the rest of the text. Any tips would be appreciated!

Links on the page will inherit the color scheme in the page properties. If you want something different, then you will need to create a hyperlink style via the style manager and then apply this style to your link in the link properties.

Thanks! I created a custom hyperlink style in style manager named "hidden link" with the same color as the regular text, however when I go to the links and highlight them and chose "style" my custom style is not among the choices, only several heading styles and one "custom style" which if I pick it it changes all of the text in the layout grid to some new font entirely. What am I doing wrong where applying the custom style to links goes?
***EDIT*** OK, I found that if I'm on the "home" tab in WB17 I have a button "Links", if I highlight a certain link and click the Link icon in the ribbon I see the hyperlink properties, if I pick my custom style and click OK it doesn't apply the custom style. So closer, but still missing something. ***CORRECTION*** It works, I just needed to preview it in my browser. Thanks so much!
