How to change hyperlink underline colour?

Hello,

 

I am exporting power bi report to pdf and I am using hyperlinking feature to text in textboxes. After creating links, I see blue colour underline that I cannot hide or change from the format panel. Do you guys know if one can remove hyperlink underlines or change some of its properties?

 

I also tried using transparent buttons with web URL in action but when I export into pdf, I get don't hyperlinks to those objects in pdf.

Hi @rishtinz ,

 

This should be by design of the PDF file. Reminder that clicking the text here can trigger the action of jumping the hyperlink.

 

You should be able to remove these underlines by editing the PDF file with some third-party tool.

I cannot do that. The text is not underlined/italicized or bolded so I cannot remove it.

Do you want to change the text font with hyperlink from blue to other colors?

If you see the above screenshot. I have a tree visual that I am using, which doesn't allow me to hyperlink nodes. In this example "Experiential Education" is a node and if I want to hyperlink it i am inserting a textbox on top of it and putting blank spaces which I am hyperlinking to a web URL. The blue underline that you see that appears everytime when you hyperlink any text whether text or numbers or spaces. In my case they are spaces and are hyperlinked.

What I want to change is the size or colour or this blue line that has appeared after creating hyperlink. Or could I simply remove it?
