Using the hyperref package, I have been able to style and make all my links clickable in my document:

\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\hypersetup{
    colorlinks = true,
    allcolors  = {blue} %Change to black if we want them invisible
}

Using this codes enables me to style and click[1] the 1 in order to navigate to my bibliography. However, I also want my links to my figures to be clickable, so when I write (see table 1) then 1 should be a link to the figure. I also noticed that my styling seem to affect my table of contents, so it is completely blue at the moment.

So I'm wondering how I can apply separate styling to my table of contents and my figures?

  • Welcome to TeX.SE! For your first question you could use something similar to https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/28125/how-do-i-remove-hyperlinks-from-tableofcontents-in-beamer, which will remove the hyperlinks from the table of contents, or https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/88400/hyperref-changing-the-linkcolor-locally-in-the-toc, which will keep the links but they will appear black. Your second question (about the figures) is not completely clear: do you want a different color for the figure links, or is the problem that you want links for figure references but they don't appear? – Marijn Apr 30 '18 at 11:24
  • Thanks! The second link answered my question! Regarding you questions, it's actually both. I want text such as "see figure 2" have the "2" link to the actual figure when pressed. I also want this "2" to be another color than my other links. I don't know how to create this link or how to color it. – frulle1 Apr 30 '18 at 12:17
  • When you reference a figure with \ref (as explained in, e.g., the 2nd link in the answer by @Yappari below) then a hyperlink is created automatically - if it is not, then please provide a small example document that reproduces the problem. With the hyperref package you can also use \autoref instead of \ref, which will add the word Figure before the number (and this word will also be part of the link). – Marijn Apr 30 '18 at 14:30

There are multiple options for coloring links, e.g. allcolors, citecolor, linkcolor.

Your ToC becomes blue because you have specified allcolors to be blue.

allcolors set all color options (without border and field options)

To color the ToC links you can use this solution.

When referencing figures, are you asking specifically how to reference figures in text and/or hyperlink them? This option is defined in the hyperref package too:

hyperfigures make figures hyper links

For future references and guides I recommend checking on sites like ShareLateX or other LaTeX wiki:s if not the package documentation in question where you can find a summary of all the different hyperref options;.
