Strike-through is a text formatting effect that creates a line through the middle of the text indicating it has been crossed out. It is often used to imply that a statement has been rendered invalid. But there isn’t a designated option for this effect on Canva.
Nonetheless, there is nothing to worry about because Canva is commonly known as a practical design tool with amazing effects that aid designers in creating whatever effect is required for a graphic design project.
