How Do You Strikethrough in Canva?

Last updated on November 7, 2022 @ 2:31 pm

There are three main ways to strikethrough text in Canva:

  • Using the Text Tool: Select the text you want to strikethrough and click on the “Strikethrough” button in the top toolbar.
  • Using Shortcuts: On a Mac, you can strikethrough text by pressing ⌘ + Shift + X. On Windows, you can do this by pressing Ctrl + Shift + X.
  • Using the Text Formatting Menu: Right-click on the text you want to strikethrough and select “Format” from the drop-down menu. Then, click on the “Strikethrough” option.

Once you’ve selected how you want to strikethrough your text, simply type out your message as normal. The strikethrough will be applied to whatever text you have typed out.

Note: You can also apply other text formatting options, such as bold or italics, at the same time as you strikethrough text. Simply select the text you want to format and click on the relevant button in the top toolbar. Alternatively, you can use shortcuts (e.g., ⌘ + B for bold on a Mac or Ctrl + B for bold on Windows) or right-click on the text and select the relevant option from the drop-down menu.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, you can easily strike through text in Canva without meaning to. Be sure to double-check your work before you publish it!
