If you set a particular font color in a style, that color will be
used for the font for every part of your document which uses that
style. It is possible that you need to go a little deeper into how to
use styles. It is a very interesting subject, and it has so many
applications in creating and/or changing documents. How styles are
applied varies according to what type of style it is: page, paragraph,
character, etc.
Your specific question refers to a character style (Internet Link).
Use F11 to open the Stylus. Find the Character Style icon (the capital
A) and click it. Below it will appear a list of character styles. Find
"Internet Link" in that list. Right click on it, and select Modify.
Make any changes you desire in the window that opens. If you are
concerned with the font color, look in the "Font Effects" Tab for Font
Color. Make sure to click OK when you have made all of your changes.
To apply any character style including 'Intrernet Link", make sure
the Stylus is open (F11). Highlight the part you want to apply the
style to (the internet link), and double click on the style you want to
use (Internet Link).
