URL Underlining

It appears to me that mini-HTML anchors (A tags) are hard-coded to always be underlined for the AdvStringGrid; there doesn't seem to be an option to disable underlines. Is there a reason for this?

Specifically, I want my anchors not to be underlined, and I want to be able to have them change colour when the mouse hovers on them. Are there technical reasons why such behaviour is disallowed for anchors in AdvStringGrids?

Cheers,

Kai

Sorry, currently hyperlinks are by design always underlined. Best we can do is consider to add an option to have this without underlining in a future update.

Thanks, Bruno. Some years ago (at least 5 or 6 now, I suppose), I modified the TMS source locally to achieve this with one of the other components... but I don't really want to start having to patch every new release with this latest project of mine. So if the underline off/on and anchor hover-color features should make it into a future update, it would be terrific. While in the 1990's URLs were invariably underlined, these days underlining hyperlinks is really not that common (except maybe when hovering over them)... makes things unnecessarily cluttered.
