linkVisitedColor

Type​

property

Summary​

Specifies the color of grouped text that has been clicked during the current session.

Syntax​

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

Description​

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

Visited text is text whose visited property is true. This property is set to true when the user has clicked a text group during the current session.

If the linkVisitedColor of a stack is empty, grouped text in that stack is shown with the global linkVisitedColor property if the text's visited property is true.

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

Examples​

set the linkVisitedColor to "purple"
set the linkVisitedColor of stack "Help" to empty

Value​

NameTypeDescription

value

The linkVisitedColor is a color reference. The colorName is any standard color name.

The 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 linkVisitedColor is set to "81,24,128" (a dark purple). The linkVisitedColor of a newly created stack is set to empty by default.
