How to use the strikethrough feature in Google Docs to indicate text that should be removed – Business Insider India

Google Docs offers features that are essential for creating memos, tailoring resumes, and editing essays. A useful tool to help edit your documents is the strikethrough function, which places a line through selected text. This allows the person who's editing the document to show what information should be deleted before it's published, or it can be used stylistically to show a change of thought while writing.

1. Open Google Docs in a browser and create a new document or select an existing one.

2. Highlight the text you want to strike through.

3. Click Format, on the menu bar at the top of the page.

4. Hover over Text to reveal another dropdown menu.

5. Select Strikethrough to add a line through the highlighted text.

Note: You can also use the shortcut keys to perform a strikethrough on the highlighted text. Press Command + Shift + X on a Mac or Alt + Shift + 5 on a PC.

1. Open the Google Docs app on your phone or tablet and select a document.

2. Tap the Pen icon at the bottom of the screen to start editing.

3. Double-tap to highlight a word or drag the cursor to select multiple words.

4. Tap the Font icon (an A with lines next to it) in the menu at the top of the screen.

5. In the Text tab, tap the S icon to perform a strikethrough.
