Examples

The following example demonstrates setting the LinkBehavior property using the LinkBehavior enumeration. It also demonstrates setting the ActiveLinkColor, LinkColor and LinkVisited properties. To run this sample paste it in a blank form and call InitializeLinkLabel from the form's constructor or Load method.

   // Declare the LinkLabel object.
internal:
   System::Windows::Forms::LinkLabel^ LinkLabel1;

   // Declare keywords array to identify links
   array<String^>^keywords;

private:
   void InitializeLinkLabel()
   {
      this->LinkLabel1 = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::LinkLabel;
      this->LinkLabel1->Links->Clear();
      // Set the location, name and size.
      this->LinkLabel1->Location = System::Drawing::Point( 10, 20 );
      this->LinkLabel1->Name = "CompanyLinks";
      this->LinkLabel1->Size = System::Drawing::Size( 104, 150 );
      
      // Set the LinkBehavior property to show underline when mouse
      // hovers over the links.
      this->LinkLabel1->LinkBehavior = System::Windows::Forms::LinkBehavior::HoverUnderline;
      String^ textString = "For more information see our"
      " company website or the research page at Contoso Ltd. ";
      
      // Set the text property.
      this->LinkLabel1->Text = textString;
      
      // Set the color of the links to black, unless the mouse
      // is hovering over a link.
      this->LinkLabel1->LinkColor = System::Drawing::Color::Black;
      this->LinkLabel1->ActiveLinkColor = System::Drawing::Color::Blue;
      
      // Associate the event-handling method with the LinkClicked
      // event.
      this->LinkLabel1->LinkClicked += gcnew LinkLabelLinkClickedEventHandler( this, &Form1::LinkLabel1_LinkClicked );
      
      // Add links to the LinkCollection using starting index and
      // length of keywords.
      array<String^>^temp0 = {"company","research"};
      keywords = temp0;
      System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum = keywords->GetEnumerator();
      while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
      {
         String^ keyword = safe_cast<String^>(myEnum->Current);
         this->LinkLabel1->Links->Add( textString->IndexOf( keyword ), keyword->Length );
      }

      
      // Add the label to the form.
      this->Controls->Add( this->LinkLabel1 );
   }

   {

Remarks

A LinkLabel control does not automatically denote that a link is a visited link. To display the link as a visited link, you can set the value of this property to true in an event handler for the LinkClicked event of a LinkLabel. A visited link is displayed using the color specified in the VisitedLinkColor property of the LinkLabel control. Once the form containing the LinkLabel control is closed, the "all display" state associated with the link is deleted. In order to retain the display state of the link, you need to store the display state of the link in a registry setting associated with your application.

Note

This property only affects the first link defined in the LinkLabel control. If you have more than one link specified in the control, use the Visited property of the LinkLabel.Link class. You can access all the links defined in the LinkLabel by using the Links property.
