Title: [Solved] Is it possible to "Strikethrough" a word in a topic's subject ?
Post by: dex1 on May 29, 2016, 02:20:38 PM
I'd like to know if it is possible to "Strikethrough" a word that is in the subject of topic.
Say in this thread's topic I would like word "possible" to become "possible".
How am I supposed to set about ?
Cheers.

Yes it is.

edit: sorry I forgot to say I used the Unicode "combining long stroke overlay" (U+0336) to get the strikethrough.
I'm pretty sure BBcode is not enabled for topic text on this board.

edit#2: If you can't figure out how to get the Unicode characters via the alt+ method, here is a website (http://adamvarga.com/strike/) that will create it for you.

Clever workaround. :D

Text do look a bit smaller, and it may not be supported in all browser/OS. I had those issues when I was designing a signature.

Edited.

You didn't need to create a new thread for that lol :) Just edit the subject.

 While I saw that I could do that, I wasn't sure it was treated the same as the initial topic text. Rather than start a new thread to ask that question, I started a new thread to test my strikeout text.  True story ;)

I figured out. ;D (had edited that part off my post)

It is the same as far as I know. BBcode doesn't work. Stars, dots, and stuff work.
