I tried to change the link color, but it only colors the `[]` part. The `()` part with the URL is still the original color.

How can I get the `()` part to change color too?

I made new MD document. link [aa](bb).
I opened dlg "Lexer style mapping" and see which items in the 2nd column have the same color as (bb) part.

- Id3
- String2

Which items in the 1st column have these styles?

- Image

and yes, changing of 'Image' to new style changes color of (bb). after app restart.

Thanks for the tip! I'm using the 'green' theme.

It seemed like `ld4` and `string3` in the second column were the link colors, but I couldn't find any element in the first column that actually used these styles.

But then I figured it out. I stumbled into `Options → Themes → Settings - Theme - UI`, and saw an option for `editor, links`. That looked promising, so I selected it, hit 'change color', and it did the trick.

I’ve spent a lot of time dialing in my beloved CudaText and I want to back up the setup so I can easily restore it after a reinstall or update. My first idea is to zip the whole CudaText program folder. On Windows, are there any config or data files stored outside that folder that I should back up too?

you see blue-color of links, because URL-regex-highlighter colors the URL (except the surrounding round brackets).

No, nothing.
Take not the app folder, but subfolders

- settings
- py (only new plugins are needed)
- data (only new dirs/files are needed)

Thanks, that’s super helpful. I’m jotting it down in my notebook

Got it.
