Why aren't they working?

If that works I'll look like a twat.

They weren't working in S&B earlier.

hah...i think we have it!

and i think even a fullstop will help fingers crossed.

Catsmamma · 27/01/2011 22:12

oooh so cannot end finish with a strikeout crossing out

thumbdabwitch · 27/01/2011 22:12

Nope. Has to be in the middle to work

thumbdabwitch · 27/01/2011 22:12

does it work if it's the first thing you do? Let's see

thumbdabwitch · 27/01/2011 22:10

but yes, if you have something after the struck out section like this, it seems ok - it's only if it's on its own

Catsmamma · 27/01/2011 22:02

hmmm the first poo was no space and the second poo had a space

maybe it's capitals that it doesn't like

Catsmamma · 27/01/2011 22:01

Mine worked earlier with the space at the front of the paragraph/line!

poo

Poo

MrsNoggin · 27/01/2011 21:59

Ah-ha! Mine worked. Maybe it has to be in the middle of a sentence. Although that, of course, could be to do with the space in front...

Catsmamma · 27/01/2011 21:58

ooooh it is fucked broken!

Catsmamma · 27/01/2011 21:58

space before hyphens

unless it really is broken!

MrsNoggin · 27/01/2011 21:58

I'm absolutely wetting myself laughing very hard at this thread. Grin

(this could be embarrassing...)

BALD · 27/01/2011 21:57

erk that's odd indeed

BALD · 27/01/2011 21:57

testing

thumbdabwitch · 27/01/2011 21:51

So when will it be fixed then?
cos it's still broken

ChaosTrulyReigns · 27/01/2011 15:54

ethelina · 27/01/2011 15:26

Thank you AdamTech

ethelina · 27/01/2011 15:25

Trillian how would you do that? Do you have one in mind?

TrillianAstra · 27/01/2011 15:22

I think you need to make it so that a beginning-of-paragraph counts as a 'you can start strike-out now' character.

 Why can't we have spaces at the beginning of paragraphs by the way? Is it to stop us drawing silly pictures?
TrillianAstra · 27/01/2011 15:21

just checking bolding

and then a non bold sentence

now this one is bold

or is it?

Hi. As part of trying to make striking out text more sensible, something has obviously broken. Thanks to all your test data though, it's more clear what it is, so we can get fixing.

ethelina · 27/01/2011 15:02

Right well I have reported my arse for you Tethers so we will wait and see.
