In Robohelp 9 how come links to topics displayed in auto sizing pop-ups so not show that the link was active. Oher links between topics change color from blue to red.

Hi,

Technically, those links are not visited. When you click a popup link, the browser does not visit another page, but executes a JavaScript to show the popup. The browser does not pick this up as visiting the link, so it won’t change colour. That’s the way browsers work.

Greet,
