You all might have noticed me writing comments on Google plus making text fonts bold, in italics, combined or strikethrough.
How did I do it?
- To make the text bold, I typed Asterix first and then the text I wanted and at the end, again I typed one more Asterix in the comment box. Then I clicked Post comment.
For eg : *This picture is awesome.*
You will see the comment saved like this with text in bold - This picture is awesome.
- To write the text in italics I typed _ (underscore, pressed shift and then pressed - ) first and then typed the text I wanted and finally at the end, again the same _ was typed in the comment box. Then I clicked Post comment.
For eg: _This picture is awesome._
The comment will be saved like this with text in italics. This picture is awesome.
- Now, I will show you how I combined both ie bold and italics together.
*_This picture is awesome._*
After clicking Post comment, the comment will look like this. This picture is awesome.
After clicking Post comment, the comment will look like this. This picture is awesome.
- Next, how to strike through?
Easy, first I typed a minus - then typed the text and then again a minus - and clicked Post comment. the text will be seen strikethrough.
-This picture is awesome.-This picture is awesome.
-This picture is awesome.-
One important thing to note - do not add a space after the Asterix, underscore and minus.
