[2.0.64] Rich text icons get underlined

[hgschmie]

consider this relatively unremarkable label style:

styles.tt_clickable_label = {
type = 'label_style',
parent = 'semibold_label',
underlined = true,
font_color = default_color,
hovered_font_color = hovered_color,
clicked_font_color = hovered_color,
}


When rendering a rich text with this style as a label, it looks like this:

The ugly part is this:

The oil rich text icon gets the same underline as the text.

This might be opening a can of worms but this should only underline "regular" text. Any rich text should not be underlined (and probably whitespace surrounding the rich text should not either.

Maybe I am misunderstanding completely, but Rich Text is a piece of the parent text; not a standalone Icon element. It just happens to be using a PNG Icon for the rendered Glyph, rather than something coming from a Unicode font.

You asked for underlined = true,; and now you are surprised that it has an underline?

This is different than the "Web Centric" expectations which a User may have. Here in the Forums an Underline tag is interrupted by an Image: Under lined. But Factorio is not a Web browser, so there is no reason/expectation for it to follow HTML/CSS rules.

It still looks ugly. So why not ask? Worst thing is "we won't change it".
