Using Gransnet - crossings out

I have tried to find an example of something I wrote.
This was on the Granny Escort thread.

However, I was once popositioned by an older gentleman, in an expensive fur coat and wearing a cossack like fur hat, on a Berlin underground station platform. He was obviously very wealthy.

The strike through comment was made as an aside. It doesn't make sense written out of context, Crossstichnan. 🤣

Oops! Forget that! I have just seen the bit at the bottom that explains about the crossings out. It was extra kind of you to help when the info was under my nose all the time. I hadn’t bothered reading it before.

I still can’t quite see why you would need to do that though. If you don’t like what you have written, why not just delete it? I am getting confused!
Thank you anyway and I’m sorry if I’m being thick!
How do people find these gems of info out? I have been on here for ages and didn’t know that.

You haven't left a space between the -- and the word that, CrazyH. You need to pay more attention. 🤣

Oops - didn’t work 😫

I didn’t —know—that Marydoll - just trying it out😂

I use it, when I am writing a tongue in cheek comment. If you type, -- with no spaces at the beginning and end of a word, it will strike through the word.

-- strike through --
strike through no spaces.
