Feature Request - Style of In-Text Citations #5

Closed pointyegg closed 6 years ago

pointyegg commented 6 years ago

I don't know if I implemented the VBA code incorrectly or if this is intentional but my in-text IEEE citations appear blue with an underline (default hyperlink). I would like them to remain black with no underline. Would it be possible to have an option for this?

Hi @pointyegg,

That is the normal behavior of Microsoft Word when you create hyperlinks, they will take the corresponding Microsoft Word style. It would be impractical to add this as a feature because of the amount of different styles people may want to use.

If you need a different style for the hyperlinks, you have to modify the Microsoft Word style to fit your needs. Have a look at Hyperlink Formatting where it is explained step by step. Once you modify the style, remove the hyperlinks and create them again to update their style.

Cheers Luis

Thanks for the tip! Thanks also for sharing these macros. I've never had to delve into Word settings much before (also putting together a dissertation).
