Coloring the margintoc

[AlexanderZeilmann]

How can I set the font color in the margin toc?

The code

% !TEX program = xelatex

\documentclass{kaobook}

\addtokomafont{section}{\color{blue}}

\begin{document}

\color{red}

\setchapterpreamble[u]{\margintoc}
\chapter{Chapter}
\section{Section}
Text

\end{document}

produces the following result:

The section number/name and page number are always black, the dots use the color of the section.
This looks a little odd. So how can I set the font color in the margintoc?

The documentation of the marginnote package suggests

\renewcommand*{\marginfont}{\color{red}\sffamily}

but this does not change anything for me.

To answer my own question:

We can change the color in the margintoc by setting the colors right before \chapter and resetting them after it:

\hypersetup{linkcolor=orange}            % Set the color for the section number/name and page number in the margintoc
\addtokomafont{section}{\color{orange}}  % Set the color for the dots in the margin toc in the margintoc
\chapter{Chapter}
\hypersetup{linkcolor=green}             % Reset the linkcolor for the normal text
\addtokomafont{section}{\color{blue}}    % Reset the section color for the normal text

Instead of modifying every chapter-call, we can redefine \chapter.

I'll try to define a new "komafont" for the margintoc, so that one could just say \setkomafont{margintoc}{<font specification>}.
