<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>A single strikethrough can be broken into multiple calls, depending on how the formatting changes attributes. Strikethrough is not averaged across font sizes/styles changes. To get an appropriate starting pixel position, add strikethrough::offset to the baseline. Like underlines, the x coordinate will always be passed as the left side, regardless of text directionality.</p>
