linkHiliteColor

Type

property

Summary

Specifies the color of grouped text that is being clicked.

Syntax

set the linkHiliteColor to {<colorName> | <RGBColor>}

set the linkHiliteColor of <stack> to {empty | <colorName> | <RGBColor>}

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.

Examples

set the linkHiliteColor to "125,0,255"

set the linkHiliteColor of this stack to myColor
