Hi @brunoborgez, it is possible, but you won’t be able to change it with your code.

Go to your Label \>\> Advanced \>\> Text Style \>\> Text Decoration Line \>\> line-through. You can also set the style and color with the two options underneath.

Because it is in the advanced category, you won’t be able to remove the strikethrough using your code (like there is no `in Label set strikethrough to false` or something).

Hey @brunoborgez,

As @mythi points out there’s no way to change this property directly in the blocks, so we have a work-around here that swaps between two different labels to achieve the same effect in block:

Hi @brunoborgez,

I just opened a feature request on github ([https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues/564](https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues/564)), where I suggest to add the ability for the “Markdown” syntax in labels.  
That way it would be very easy to format your text with striketrough, or even change it dynamically:

- Text surrounded by a ` ~~` pair will be formatted as strikethrough. Example:~~ This text will be strikethrough~~

Right now this syntax is supported in Airtable, and I think it would be helpful if labels and other text fields in Thunkable would support it too.

Explanation of Markdown:

> **[Markdown syntax for Airtable rich text formatting](https://support.airtable.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044741993)**
>
> Rich text in Airtable is based on on a variation of Markdown, a lightweight and readable syntax for formatting. You can use Markdown in the following areas in Airtable:
> 
> Base descriptions
> Long text...
