Strikethrough Formatting
It would be great if I could format text with a strikethrough without having to mark it as Complete.

Agreed. I would like to have Strikethrough formatting in order to see a complete list. Once deleted or completed, I can no longer see an item, which is great once the whole task is complete, but I also need a way to show what was partially done, without waiting for my daily report.

Strikethrough formatting would be a great addition. I often have a semi-completed item for which some info will have to changed, but I don’t want to lose the old parts. It would help if I could strikethrough the now obsolete parts, while leaving the valid parts and still having the strikethrough parts to remind me of the original arguments. Please do this, team!

Hi Jennifer,
What Signe is talking about is not the strikethrough as requested on this thread... it's WorkFlowy's way of completing items (and hiding them if you want)... which does strike items through... but does not strike through selected/ highlighted text. The keyboard shortcut for that is Ctrl+Enter. If you test that out, you'll see what I mean...

This would be a nice addition. Workflowy's tagline is "organize your brain", and through that lens, there are plenty of situations where you would want to strike something through to mark that the task/information is done, no longer important, obsolete, updated, etc., without necessarily deleting that information. The task completed functionality works for certain purposes, but doesn't work at all if you're using Workflowy to organize notes rather than simple bullet points.

This would be a great addition indeed, my use case is:
I need to have a list of todo items, that I want to keep to show to a client, but internally I want to keep track of what was done, after all is done I can just copy paste the list to the client.
An alternative to this would be to show completed items on a single node

i've been following this thread for a while and i feel like a strikethrough can be useful in many ways:

https://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/23/business/media/23link.htmloften for emphasis, irony, quick revision tracking, or to specifically denote when/what something is not valid or appropriate.
i've been using unicode strikethrough as a substitute until workflowy hopefully supports this type of markup, something along the lines of:
but it is clunky and slow to do this and not nearly as fast as a bold/underline/italicize. it does seem to work with the search function in my testing, but the highlighted text is often not fully selected.
