Ability to Underline Text?

Is it just me or is the ability to underline text in a content slide not available?

I could really use this feature, and if it isn't there, I wonder why not? We have been using Proclaim to create our entire service content and our pastor likes certain text to be underlined to match the outline in our printed program.

In the main content, you can highlight some text and use the keyboard "CMD+U" to underline, there is no underline button on the rich text toolbar.

CMD+B is bold

CMD+I is Italic

Ctrl+U on Windows

Hi Stephanie

Please may I jump on one of my hobby horses and ask you to encourage your Pastor not to do too much underlining on screen.

People with reading or visual problems find underlined text much harder to read because the underlining destroys the 'shape' of the words and the visual clue of the descender is lost.

For text that is going to be projected and thus allow limited time for reading better options for emphasis are bold emphasis or italic emphasis or even changing the colour (which I haven't learnt to do yet in the forums).

Thanks for the reminder Scott.

and a fine example of the adage 'a text out of context is a pretext'

or even changing the colour (which I haven't learnt to do yet in the forums).

Hi Glenn, I saw this and was wondering how to underline on a cpu or mobile version, and if it was possible? I would really like if i could do this on my iPad or iPhone!

Thanks,

Rick
