Question

Text links in normal style

Hi

I'm using RoboHelp 8. I see that all the text links I create in the Design tab (text links, drop-down hotspots or text popups) do not use the Hyperlink style but the Normal style.

What I do is: I select the text for the link, I click the "Insert Hyperlink" icon and I select a target topic. The selected text remains in the normal style without applying the hyperlink features (I have customized all the Hyperlink styles: visited, not visited, followed hyperlink...)

Is this correct? I'm sure I'm making some mistakes somewhere...

Thank you

Hi,

Does the topic use the style sheet you have defined the hyperlinks in?

When you show a preview, are the links formatted (even if not formatted the way you want)?

Greet,

Willam

Hi William,

Yes, my topic uses the correct css with the customized hyperlink styles.

Yes, the text links are somehow formatted - not with the style I have defined.

Your hyperlink elements must be placed in LoVeHAte order (the mnemonic helps), top to bottom. That is:

link { styles }

visited { styles }

hover { styles }

active { styles }

That's a CSS thing, not RH.

Good luck,

Leon
