using strikethrough in captions
-
Most of my items begin with a photo, and wherever I can, the photographer’s credit is included in the caption. Mostly use public domain sources which supply the credit references.
Had a note the other day from a photographer, who complained he was NOT in the air force, as the credit said, but the army. You can see the exchange in the comments here:

What I wanted to do was use srikethrough on “Air Force” and add “Army” in bold, but couldn’t manage it inside the caption. So I moved the credit outside/below the caption box. Maybe there is a way to do it in the caption box and I didn’t find it. But if not, please consider this a suggestion for a rainy day.
My experience is that most people don’t read footnotes, but they will read captions.
Thanks for listening.

No you cannot format the captions. But you can imitate the style if you insert non-captioned images and use appropriate html coding – see here:

Then you can format the caption text any way you like.

Captions can’t be edited, but you could use a table to simulate the effect:
