strikethrough math content

[prime marsh]

How can I strikethrough math content?

?render

#strike($a$)

[prime marsh]

If there is an alternative that looks different (for instance diagonal) it's also fine.

?render $ #box(stroke: (bottom: 0.5pt), outset: (x:0pt, y:-2.5pt))[a] $

I can't remember how to get the bot to do light mode

I believe cancel will be a part of the next version though

?render theme=light $ #box(stroke: (bottom: 0.5pt), outset: (x:0pt, y:-2.5pt))[a] $
