Hello:
With Word (see photo 1),
I selected 5 words at once (see red squares + red arrows),
and after selecting all 5, I pressed bold + underline + red color (see blue squares + blue arrows),
and all 5 words became bold, underlined, and red at once.
However, in the XChange "comments box" (see photo 2),
I can only underline ONE word at a time (in fact, the word "all'intera" is the only one underlined),
because I can't select the other 4 at once. Therefore, I'll have to repeat the process 5 times,
meaning, 5 times, I'll have to press "bold", "underline", and "red color" (see blue squares + blue arrows).
=
1. Can it be done like in Word?
2. Also, within the comments box, can you create shortcuts to make text bold, underlined, and any color you choose
(e.g., with shortcut key "A," I make it bold; with shortcut key "B," I make it underlined;
with shortcut key "C," I make it red; with shortcut key "D," I make it blue)?

Hello, kio
This cannot be done inside of comments or the comments pane, however, it most certainly can be done on base content text on the page. You need only use the "select text" tool, then ctrl + click/drag on the page text: I hope this helps!
Kind regards,

Oh, okay, thanks anyway:
I needed it in the comments because I often make additions and changes there.
Thanks anyway for the work you do.
