Remove dotted underlining

Post by ErikJon »

I don't mean to sound rude, but why do you offer dotted and dashed underlining instead of only solid underlining? Is it a cultural thing? The difference between one and the other is so minimal that it seems entirely unnecessary. It is tantamount to offering different thicknesses for the yellow marker highlighting, as it would also be unnecessary. We could use the extra screen space on the tool bar for more productive things, such as for additional highlight colors simultaneously displayed, to preclude the need for drop-down-and-select action every time. Even "double-underlining" seems more useful than 'single" although I never use double for anything either. At least the difference is more substantial.

Isn't it the same idea as using different colors for highlighting?

Actually, all I'm seeing on my toolbar is the standard underline, I'm not sure why I'm missing it. (1480)
