Pages Default Hyperlink Style

I want to change the default hyperlink style but don't see any means to. The default is the blue underlined text which is a bit MS Word. I can create a new style and convert it but this is an extra step I'd like not to have to take!
Any ideas for changing the hyperlink default style?
Thanks.

Yes, but we are talking about cutting and pasting text which contains URLs into a Pages document. Pages has its own style for hyperlinks - blue text that is underlined. This is what I wanted to alter.
Anyway I found a solution for anyone else who is looking to do this.
Make a new character style of how you want the hyperlinks to look, e.g. no underlining, but bold text. When you insert the text and Pages auto-detects the hyperlinks and applies its own style, but click the downward arrow next to "None" in the character style window, and choose "Select All Uses of None" and it will highlight all the hyperlinks. You can now click your character style and it will be applied to all the hyperlinks.
I don't know if this is a bug as such (as the style is not "None"  - it is Apple's default style for hyperlinks) but at least it does the job.

  • Hyperlink styles in menu look correct in editor but wrong in Preview or real Web Browser

    The default hyperlink style of my site is:
    Normal or Visited links are black, boldface and underlined
    Hovering or active links are grey boldface and underlined
    Except for my menu where I want them this way:
    Normal, Visited or Active links are black, no boldface and no underline
    Hovering links are grey and underlined
    But I can't manage to do it!
    The items appear in boldface with no underlines and no colour change (so the only hint when you hover them is the pointer changing from arrow to hand)
    The only different is the last item that is the only one that has submenu and is not a hyperlink by itself. It doesn't appear in boldface but again no underline or colour change. Also the first item of this submenu appears without boldface.
    in the editor the menu looks fine but in the preview or when HTML exported, the menu looks as explained.
    As Menus behave differently than other hyperlinks, I've tried to click and drill down to the text in the menu then modify the text appearance using the States panel, but as I said, the menu looks fine in the editor but not in the preview or web browser.
    I also have tried to remove the menu completely and creating again from scratch, but even with all the default options of the widget (not even font size change nor font type), it appears as non boldface in the editor but boldface in the preview.
    You can see the menu live in the site here:

    Instead of the original Muse file for my site I thought it would be easier for you to have a minimal site that also reproduces the problem so this is the test.muse file I'm sending to you.
    Meanwhile, I had to make a workaround for my actual site menu to work as intended by removing the boldface attribute from the hyperlinks default style of the site. This is the dblanco.muse file I'm also attaching. You just have to activate the boldface in the default style to have the problem again.

  • Anyone managed to change default hyperlink colour or to globally change hyperlink colour in Pages????

    Anyone managed to change default hyperlink colour or to globally change hyperlink colour in Pages????
    - Thats all I  want to do, the holy grail of desktop publishing, being able to choose a colour and apply it everywhere, c'mon Apple sort it out, its surely not rocket surgery....

    I figured it out.
    Select one instance of the hyperlink, and define it as a character style in the styles drawer.
    Then create the preferred style you want to use for hyperlinks and save it to character styles.
    You can select every instance of the original link style, and replace with the preferred style.
    Hopefully I've explained this adequately.
    Cheers.

  • Set Default Hyperlink Color

    How can I set a different default color for hyperlinks in Pages?
    My company's style sheet dictates a particular color for hyperlinks; I'd like to be able to set that once rather than having to manually set the color each time.

    I know for a fact that there is a way to change the default colour of a hyperlink.
    It doesn't work for me. I don't see a hyperlink style already set up, and while I can create one, it isn't used by default.
    I produce a weekly newsletter that is mostly distributed on paper, and so printed in black and white. I also want to get rid of underlining. And every time, I add an email address or a URL I've got to manually select it, set the color to black and turn off underlining. The style really should be user controllable.

  • Hyperlink style changes after launching site

    I've assigned a hyperlink style to some text and it works fine when I'm publishing my temp site. Once I "launch" the site, the link stye changes to default (blue text and underline). How do I get my Launched site to adhere to the specified link style?
    example page: http://www.alexanderwyly.com/gallery.html

    Strange. Try this, delete the "muse_manifest.xml" file from the "Site Manager -> File Manager" section of the your Business Catalyst site's admin console and then republish your site again using "All Files".

  • How can I create a different hyperlink style for my footer only?

    My footer is dark so the site hyperlink styles don't look good. I'm sure there must be a way to set footer specific hyperlink styles, but I cannot find out how to do it. Please help!
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Sanjit. Your answer brought me one step closer.
    For anyone in future who is trying to find the answer to this question, here's what to do:
    1. Go to Site Properties > Content tab. Click the "new link style" icon below the window.
    2. Rename the style and then adjust the hyperlink properties.
    3. Back on your page, create a hyperlink in the usual way, then click on the orange Hyperlinks beside the Add or filter links dropdown field to get the hyperlinks popup box. Go to the dropdrown field called Text Link Style and select your new style.

  • Change default paragraph style!!

    How do I change the default paragraph style? I can't stand double spaces but that's what I am stuck with
    I want freeform, not body
    Application is Pages 2.0.2
    Message was edited by: Spprrw

    Welcome to the Apple forums
    By default, the Pages developers chose to use 12 point after paragraph spacing which will make it appear as a double space between paragraphs. You need to create your own default template. Set up your document with the line spacing, margins, headers, etc. as you'd like. Redefine all of the paragraph & character styles to have your desired font.
    While you're at it, you might want to set default styles for all objects, text boxes, tables, paragraph styles, etc. Start with a blank document & insert an object. Change the color, wrap, etc. to your choosing & then go to Format > Advanced > Define Default Shape Style then delete the object. Repeat with an image/photo, a text box & a table.
    Now, save this as a template then, in Pages > Preferences, select this template as the default for new documents. All of your new documents will have these settings for inserted objects, images & tables. Unfortunately, the settings won't apply to any other templates or "foreign" documents you open with Pages.

  • Define Default Image Style option ignores Inline setting

    I am writing my Vectorworks training manuals using Pages 09 which have a lot of images in them. I want all my images to be inline not floating.
    I have followed the instructions in the Help to set my default image style.
    I select an image, choose outline, shadows, and inline from the Inspector and then choose Define Default Image Style from the Format/Advanced menu.
    All the settings EXCEPT the Inline are saved. And having to change from Floating to Inline each time is a real pain.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi vectorworks trainer
    Floating Image is not an attribute of the default image style.
    A way around this is to drag a folder of your images into the Media Browser.
    Select the image you want in the media browser, copy and click into the text where you want the image and paste. You can also copy and paste from the desktop.
    This demonstrates several elements of the poor UI design in OSX.
    1. That the obvious (drag & drop) doesn't work as expected
    2. Inserting the cursor where you want the image then going to the media browser, loses the focus in the document.
    3. The focus does not stay consistent between selection and insertion points.
    4. Dragging in text from the desktop behaves differently and does go into the insertion point.
    Peter
    btw How goes with VectorWorks? We really need a drawing program to fill in the gaps in iWork. Particularly useful would be one that can save Pages' Shapes and allow drag & drop/copy & paste Shapes into Pages documents.

  • Can't "Define default table style"

    I am trying to define how a new table gets inserted into my document. I can set the header text formatting, table body formatting, table text etc just fine, go to format>advanced> define default table style but I cannot seem to get the table borders the way I want.
    I am trying to have ONLY horizontal table borders appear on a newly inserted table. It seems you only have a choice of ALL borders or NO borders in the table body... not any variation in-between.
    Anybody seen this issue or know of a workaround?

    Okay, did everything you suggested: Cleared caches, rebooted, checked disks, permissions, etc. (all was fine as I am very meticulous about keeping my Mac in a pridstine state... no junk, hacks, minimal 3rd party bits etc.)
    This is what I did:
    1 Launch pages
    2 Choose blank template
    3 Type a few letters of text
    4 Save file
    5 Insert table
    6 Click outside table, then once on table so that it has the four square "handles"
    7 Pages Graphic Inspector - change stroke to none
    8 Click the horizontal lines button in table inspector
    9 Graphic Inspector - change Stroke to the line
    10 Click outside table, then once on table so that it has the four square "handles"
    11 Format>advanced> define default table
    12 Table lines re-appear
    13 adding a new table shows all lines, not just horizontal
    I tried with different templates (Blank, CV, etc)
    I created a new user and tried it there
    This occurs both on a 20 inch iMac and a 12' 867 Powerbook. It's strange that other people can apparently do it and I can't.

  • Links: Active and Hyperlink Styles

    Hello,
    Curious to know...
    I have a button and it has design properties set for the active state...
    The active state visual design properties are different than the other button states (normal, rollover, down)
    The button's hyperlink is targeting an anchor on another page...
    The button persists on both pages...
    When I publish/preview, the active state is not showing after click
    I have checked the box inside the hyperlink dialog to show active states
    The button itself has no hyperlink styles defined or set however.
    Do I need hyperlink styles defined and applied to the button before the active state will show?
    Am I making any sense?
    thanks. I guess I could run through an exercise to find out but I was here so I thought I'd post the question.

    Thanks for the reply. Sounds like my understanding is correct then as it is the same as what you describe.
    However, something is wrong with my current setup here:
    http://samplelawsite.businesscatalyst.com/legal-definition-and-examples-of-services.html
    Background:
    Stage element "BTN: Legal Service 1":
    ... is a text frame with a (1px white) border for normal, over and down states.
    ... has hyperlink styles applied (text should underline for hover and active)
    ... has an active state that is different from the other states (changes white border to match background; simulates border disappearing).
    Stage elements "BTN Legal Service 2":
    ... is a button widget object with different design properties for the active state (no border for active)...
    Each element described above should take the user to a page anchor (on same page) when clicked.
    The active states do not show as expected/intended...

  • Problems with vertical cell borders and the default table style

    When laying out tables in Word, I like to use thin horizontal lines (cell borders) and thick-ish white vertical lines. The vertical white cell borders create a subtle negative space that is less cluttered than the typical boxed-in-all-sides style.
    Issue 1.
    In Pages, horizontal cell borders seem to take precedence over vertical cell borders so my vertical white line trick doesn't work. Is there a way to force my vertical white cell borders to "show up" over my think black horizontal cell borders?
    Issue 2.
    So, for the time being, I'm not using vertical white cell borders in tables; instead, I set the vertical cell borders to "none." Unfortunately, when I try to set the default table style using a table with no vertical cell borders, Pages adds the vertical cell borders anyway. Does anyone know a way to get Pages to surrender?

    I checked and here, aftere defining a new default format with vertical lines set to none, this format is used when I cvreate a new table.
    But the same with horizontal lines doesn't apply.

  • How to change the default text style?

    The MacOS system seems to maintain a collection of text 'styles' available in applications such as TextEdit, Bean, MacJournal, Notebook and DevonThink. This collection contains a default style, used by some (but not all) of these applications as the default text style for new documents.
    At my computers this default style is characterized in the 'favorite styles' panel as 'left aligned, spacing 0.0x' and it has strange tab stops (0.99, 1.98, 2.96, 3.95, 4.94, 5.93, 6.91, 7.90, 8.89, 9.89, 10.86, 11.85 cm).
    I prefer tab stops at 1.00, 2.00, 3.00 etc., and 1.2x line spacing.
    I guess I have changed the default style by accident, as I cannot imagine Apple putting such strange tab stops in a default style (0.0x spacing sounds a bit strange too). If so, it must somehow be possible to change the default style.
    I have tried to change the default style via TextEdit (which does not use the default style as default, but spacing 1.0x and tab stop at each centimeter) and several other applications (Bean, MacJournal, Notebook) in the following way: select a piece of text with the intended format, open the document styles panel, click 'Add to Favorites', enter 'Default' as the name for the style and click 'Replace'. Unfortunately, that doesn't work. Although I do not get an error message, the Default style hasn't changed. I can save my preferred style as, for example, 'Preferred' but that does not prevent MacJournal and other applications from using Default for every new document.
    Any idea how to change this default style, or, if that is not possible, reset it to its original state?

    I suggest you have a look at [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/stationery/?src=api Stationery].
    It won't help you in defining styles, as such, but will give you templates wherein you can set up styles.
