Description nirodhaha 2021-08-23 03:14:08 UTC
Description:
Normally Internet Link uses a Navy Blue font.  If I create new style that uses say a brown font, it won't work.  The Internet Link font color will predominate.  I can change Internet Link font to brown, but then it changes every other hyperlink in my document to brown.  Bottom line?  I can't create a new hyperlink style.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write a sentence in Writer as follows: Here are 2 hyperlinks: Hyperlink1 and Hyperlink2.
2.Format Hyperlink1 with Standard Internet Link (Blue Color, Times New Roman 12.
3.Create New Hyperlink Style.  Name it EarthyLink. (Brown Color, Tahoma, 15.  Format Hyperlink2 with EarthyLink.
4. Notice that the Font and font size change, but the color does not.

Actual Results:
The new style shows up in my Style window as brown, but it does not work.  Color remains the same color defined by Standard Internet Link (Blue).

Expected Results:
It should have used EarthyLink as defined with BROWN color.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
The software should give me the ability to style hyperlinks the way I choose, with the color I choose and not have the Standard Internet Link style override my self-created style.

Just a jpg of my bug description.  Notice how the Styles pane shows Earthy Hyperlink in Brown, but the document does not.

Thanks.
