Hi everybody,
For those who don�t want to play hide and seek with those hidden links in the transcript dictionary just enter in the messagebox :
set the linkcolor �of stack "revdocslanguagereference" to blue �-- or whatever color name or triplet you like
If this already in the archives disregard this mail (as a newbie I didn�t have time to explore the archives yet)
Greetings

Wow, not only does this provide a simple and practical solution to the issue at hand, it also illustrates the user-friendliness and power of �of RR! (I imagine textstyle could be changed as well, or font, etc. to make everyone happy. �Dark Blue� works well for me, but add the parentheses).
Well, I tried it, and Jeanne is right. Reading variable text colour was really irritating. Your response may be different of course. I think a panel or multi-pane idea sounds neater.
However, while we are near the subject, the only thing that really vexes me about help is the fact that the Transcript Dictionary insists on remaining behind an open script window. This is the time I am most likely to open the Dictionary and means I must either rearrange windows or close the script and reopen it immediately after. Is there a property I can change which will allow the Dictionary window to foreground over the script window when clicked? Yes, I can look for one but...you might know it now.
thanks
David
