This element specifies that the contents of this run shall be displayed with two horizontal lines through each character displayed on the line.

If this element is not present, the default value is to leave the formatting applied at previous level in the style hierarchy. If this element is never applied in the style hierarchy, then double strikethrough shall not be applied to the contents of this run.

This element shall not be present with the strike (§2.3.2.35) property on the same run, since they are mutually exclusive in terms of appearance.

[Example: Consider a run of text which shall have the dstrike property explicitly turned on for the contents of the run. This constraint is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:rPr>
<w:dstrike w:val="true"/>
</w:rPr>

This run explicitly declares that the dstrike property is true, so the contents of this run will have two horizontal strikethrough lines. end example]

Attributes

Description

val (On/Off Value)

Specifies a binary value for the property defined by the parent XML element.

A value of on, 1, or true specifies that the property shall be explicitly applied. This is the default value for this attribute, and is implied when the parent element is present, but this attribute is omitted.

A value of off, 0, or false specifies that the property shall be explicitly turned off.

[Example: For example, consider the following on/off property:

<w:… w:val="off"/>

The val attribute explicitly declares that the property is turned off. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).
