"Go to settings" in Style Configurator guides users to the settings in Preferences, which is good. But it's not explicit visually.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Open Style Configurator.
  2. Under "Global Styles", choose "Caret coulor".
  3. Click "Go to settings" link.
  4. Preferences dialog shows, "Editing 1" section is opened.

Current Behavior

Users have to search caret settings in dialog.

Expected Behavior

The caret settings is indicated directly - no more search by users.
