Can you underline one word in an ods text = statement?
For example:
ods text= "^S={ font_face = 'Times New Roman' just=j fontweight=light fontsize=12pt color=black}Background:For this project, we are looking for..."
I would like to ONLY underline the word "Background" above.
Thanks!
Here are 2 options:
Option 1 using inline formatting:
ods text= "^S={ font_face = 'Times New Roman' just=j fontweight=light
fontsize=12pt color=black textdecoration=underline}Background
^S={font_face = 'Times New Roman' just=j fontweight=light
fontsize=12pt color=black}: For this project, we are looking for...";
Option 2 if you are using RTF then you can use RTF control words to control style:
ods rtf file="UnderlineOneWord.rtf";
ods text= "^S={ font_face = 'Times New Roman' just=j fontweight=light fontsize=12pt color=black protectspecialchars=off}
\ul{Background}\ul0 : For this project, we are looking for...";
ods rtf close;
Theoretically, you could use CSS styles and use a pseudo class:
p:first-word{text-decoration:underline;}
but I don't think that is supported.
I can do this:
ods listing;
ods html file="text.html" style=mystyle;
ods pdf file="text.pdf" startpage=never notoc style=mystyle;
ods rtf file="text_trad.rtf" style=mystyle;
ods escapechar='^';
title "January Orders ";
footnote " For All Employees";
ods text="My text 1";
ods text="^S={textdecoration=underline}My^S={} Text 2";
data grades;
input id grade1 grade2 grade3 grade4;
datalines;
1105 1 2 3 4
1106 2 2 2 2
1107 3 3 4 6
;
run;
proc print data=grades;
run;
ods text="My Text 3";
ods pdf close;
ods rtf close;
title;
footnote;
proc template;
delete mystyle;
run;
The key statement there is
ods escapechar='^';
and then its use with
^S={textdecoration=underline}My^S={}
See if that gets you anywhere.
Thank you, this helps!
