FAQ

Question 1: What is the practical use of strikethrough?

• Solution: In presentations, strikethrough can be used to show the change history of content, mark modified clauses, and compare text differences before and after modifications, helping the audience intuitively understand the process of content changes.

Question 2: Can the color of the strikethrough be customized?

• Solution: The color of the strikethrough defaults to the text color. In WPS Slides, the color of the strikethrough usually changes with the text color, and setting the strikethrough color separately is currently not supported.

Question 3: Will strikethrough affect the printing effect?

• Solution: Strikethrough will display normally when printed. If you do not want to display the strikethrough when printing, select the text and clear the strikethrough setting before printing.

Notes

• Strikethrough is commonly used to mark content that has been invalidated or needs to be modified.
• The strikethrough effect changes with the text color.
• Use strikethrough with caution in formal presentations to avoid affecting professionalism.
