Strike through text

With strikeout on, press the mouse button at the start of the text, drag across it, and release at the end. You can drag across one line or several.

  • One line, or two or three lines: each line gets a straight horizontal strikeout.
  • Four or more lines: the block gets a single Z-style strikeout.

Click Off when you are finished so that ordinary clicks fill in fields again.

Delete a strikeout

  1. Click one of the circles at the ends of the strikeout.
  2. Click the red X that pops up.
