+-----------+--------------------------------+

Text :ref:`Color<class_Color>` used when the ``LinkButton`` is focused. Only replaces the normal text color of the button. Disabled, hovered, and pressed states take precedence over this color.

+-----------+-----------------------+
| *Default* | ``Color(1, 1, 1, 1)`` |

+-----------+-------+
| *Default* | ``0`` |
+-----------+-------+

The size of the text outline.

----

.. _class_LinkButton_theme_constant_underline_spacing:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **underline_spacing**

+-----------+-------+
| *Default* | ``2`` |
+-----------+-------+

The vertical space between the baseline of text and the underline.

----

.. _class_LinkButton_theme_font_font:

:ref:`Font<class_Font>` of the ``LinkButton``'s text.

----

.. _class_LinkButton_theme_font_size_font_size:

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **font_size**

Font size of the ``LinkButton``'s text.

----

.. _class_LinkButton_theme_style_focus:

- :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` **focus**

:ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` used when the ``LinkButton`` is focused. The ``focus`` :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` is displayed *over* the base :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>`, so a partially transparent :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` should be used to ensure the base :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` remains visible. A :ref:`StyleBox<class_StyleBox>` that represents an outline or an underline works well for this purpose. To disable the focus visual effect, assign a :ref:`StyleBoxEmpty<class_StyleBoxEmpty>` resource. Note that disabling the focus visual effect will harm keyboard/controller navigation usability, so this is not recommended for accessibility reasons.
