I am a terrible typist, so naturally I've selected some feature without meaning to and now when I look at object text in the properties-> general window all of it
has a line drawn through it. Right-clicking shows that, at least as DOORS is concerned,
strikethru is not engaged. So where is the stupid strikethru coming from
and how do I turn it off?
ARGH

To remove all markup from the Object Text of the current object.

1. Select the offending object.
2. Select Tools > Edit DXL and paste the following code into the code window.

(current Object)."Object Text" = (current Object)."Object Text" ""

3. Click on Run.

Note that this will remove ALL richText markup and OLEs.

Tony,
It's still there. Kind of odd since I got the red status bar indicating the object had
been changed. But then when I went back to the properties window the strikethru
was still there.
This is weird.
Thanks,
Tara

P.S. I did do a save before going back to the properties window.

Seems to me, most people do not edit in the properties window. If your object text doesn't show the strike thru -- is there there really a major problem?

Trouble is, the strike-thru does appear in the document. And there are plenty of reasons to be looking at the properties window even aside from looking at the object text.

Can you run the attached script on one object that is marked thru and has simple text -- then paste results back here for our inspection.

//DXLScript
/*Script to print simple rtf markup of an object*/
Object o = current
string s =richText o."Object Text"
print s
