NameTypeDescription
Value

The linkHiliteColor is a color reference. A colorName is any standard color name.

An RGBColor consists of three comma-separated integers between zero and 255, specifying the level of each of red, green, and blue; or an HTML-style color consisting of a hash mark (#) followed by three hexadecimal numbers, one for each of red, green, and blue.

By default, the linkHiliteColor is set to "255,0,0" (bright red). The linkHiliteColor of a newly created stack is set to empty by default.

Description

Use the linkHiliteColor property to make grouped text look and behave like links in a web browser.

The linkHiliteColor appears to show that grouped text is being clicked. When the mouse button is released, the text color changes to the linkVisitedColor.

If the linkHiliteColor of a stack is empty, grouped text in that stack is shown with the global linkHiliteColor property when being clicked.

If the linkHiliteColor of a stack is not empty, grouped text in that stack is shown with the stack's linkHiliteColor property, regardless of the global setting.
