We now use the SWT widget Still... we should be using the Jface values for this, not the SWT defaults... shouldnt we? We should likely just remove those settings altogether. No can do...they're API. re-opening I'm moving this to SWT. In order for us to fix the PreferenceLinkArea to be able to set other colors as link colors AND to be able to query the Link widget in SWT for good link color defaults (or use SWT.???HyperLink_Color???) we need some new API. Until then the roled fake link widgets might support a hyperlink color that is set in the UI and the SWT Link based ones will not. So basically we need to set and get: hyperlink color active hyperlink color (In reply to comment #5) > No can do...they're API. And Eclipse Forms set the hyperlink default colors using JFace settings. Windows doesn't provide API for that. SysLink control API is really poor. What is the 'active hyperlink color', is it the foreground color of a hyperlink that has been visited, or the foreground color of a hyperlink when the mouse pointer is over it? Right now hyperlinks have two types of foreground color: normal (enabled), and disabled. No setter or getter. (In reply to comment #9) > Windows doesn't provide API for that.

... but successfully used in many places in the Windows XP UI.
