Rodrigo Girão Serrão da9a481f1c Remove inclusion of old css types snippets.
Supposedly, this had been done in an earlier commit for all styles. Apparently, I forgot to open styles references that were one level deeper in the directory, so the pages about grid, links, and scrollbar colors still included the css types values directly in their reference pages.

Links

Textual supports the concept of inline "links" embedded in text which trigger an action when pressed. There are a number of styles which influence the appearance of these links within a widget.

!!! note

These CSS rules only target Textual action links. Internet hyperlinks are not affected by these CSS rules.
Property Description
link-background The background color of the link text.
link-color The color of the link text.
link-hover-background The background color of the link text when the cursor is over it.
link-hover-color The color of the link text when the cursor is over it.
link-hover-style The style of the link text when the cursor is over it.
link-style The style of the link text (e.g. underline).

Syntax

--8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_start.md" link-background: <color> [<percentage>];

link-color: <color> [<percentage>];

link-style: <text-style>;

link-hover-background: <color> [<percentage>];

link-hover-color: <color> [<percentage>];

link-hover-style: <text-style>; --8<-- "docs/snippets/syntax_block_end.md"

Visit each style's reference page to learn more about how the values are used.

Example

In the example below, the first label illustrates default link styling. The second label uses CSS to customize the link color, background, and style.

=== "Output"

```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/links.py"}
```

=== "links.py"

```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/links.py"
```

=== "links.css"

```sass
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/links.css"
```

Additional Notes

  • Inline links are not widgets, and thus cannot be focused.
