[Issue] "Visited" Hyperlink Font Doesn't Change

Post by DickR »

I'm setting up a Jeopardy! style game board with hyperlinks to other documents in the same file. I went to "Tools - Options - OO - Appearance" chose the colors for Visited Links and Unvisited Links and checked those boxes. The Unvisted Links font shows correctly and will take me to the correct document if I click on it. However, when I come back to the game board, the font has not changed to the chosen Visited Link font. What am I doing wrong?

UPDATE - I've some testing, and this problem appears to be across the board. In other words, the same problem occurs in Writer and even the Open Office Help page. Moreover, the same thing happens if the hyperlink is to a webpage, not just to another document.

That's a very old bug. See https://bz.apache.org. In eight years this issue has not even been tagged as confirmed. You may try if LibreOffice has fixed this, but don't hold your breath.
