2021 R3 links invisible in WYSIWYG

[Liz Gregory]

Hi, support are silent, hoping someone else can help with this.

Since upgrading (lol) to 2021 R3 I've had all the same GIT problems everyone else is complaining about, but now a new evil has arisen, I cannot see the text in hyperlinks in the WYSIWYG view anymore. It's publishing fine, but as soon as text is turned into hyperlink, it's invisible and I can't highlight it. Does anyone have any idea how I might fix this? I'm a bit nervous about reverting due to the GIT issues, I don't know how to fix the hidden folder issue.

I can't believe Madcap were so careless about this release. Feels strongly like someone pushing for an arbitrary deadline rather than allowing full testing to take place. What a waste of a January.

Replying to myself with some more information. If I delete my user folder, the default target changes to a PDF target (from an HTML5 target) and then I can see links. But it's the most minor target in my list and not ideal behaviour.

I got a somewhat similar behavior, even more extreme: with the editor layout set to Web, all texts in <p> with no style class applied and no character formatting was hidden. Did you try to put it off and on again? (I always wanted to ask this ) Because for me this went away after rebooting my machine.

I did try rebooting yes, the only thing that's worked is removing my user profile folder but that's stopped working now too. I'm going to revert to previous version.
