colorful links
Sumatra is great, but it doesn't highlight links (within the document) like other pdf readers do.

Sumatra:
Is it possible to give this as an option?
External links are highlighted in blue when switched on for that session
How do you switch it on? Also, this is not an external link, it's an internal link (it leads to a point in the file).
Pre-release (I think it was showing in 3.2 also) internal links should look the same I set this one to page 2 but there is no tooltip to confirm where internals go to
AFAIK 3.2 had it shown in the official release (oversight ?) but not in 3.3/3.4 ? so latest pre-release is the best option
Yes, I think that's right. I have version 3.4.6, and I do remember that Sumatra used to have this feature by default.
its classed "experimental" not matured :-) so in the debug features but 3.2 included some
And hence my request :) Sumatra is great (it is the only pdf reader on Windows that I know of that updates the presentation when the file changes automatically; Adobe reader doesn't even allow to change the file if it's open), but this feature is really missing from the latest versions.
@kjk several PDF viewers allow 2 colour link outlines, one usually for internal gotos and one usually for externals URL could HighlightLinks be a settings.txt option on /off (true false) or at least one colour used such as current ? #00ffff (default) or better yet be changeable for both types?
Yeah, we already have code to show links in debug mode. I'll expose it via command / setting.
added ShowLinks advanced setting and Toggle Show Links for command palette (Ctrl + K)
Will be in next pre-release within next 24 hrs
@kjk Hello, the default color of highlight links is blue. Can I customize the color?
There's no way to change the color (other than compiling the application from sources)
@kjk Thank you for your reply.
I noticed that in SumatraPDF-settings.txt I can customize the color of some objects, such as the color of MainWindowBackground, could you please add a new feature so that the user can specify the color of highlight links in SumatraPDF-settings.txt?
