About This Feature

Overview

Underline is a built-in text-formatting feature in WPS Office for Android spreadsheets. It is used to add an underline to cell content so important values, review items, or style-specific text can stand out more clearly.

Core tasks include:

Add underline: Apply underline formatting to selected cells or ranges.
Remove underline: Tap the same button again to clear the underline.
Use underline with font color: The underline follows the font color for a consistent visual style.

Capability Summary	In Android spreadsheets, you can select a cell or range and use the Underline button on the Home tab to add or remove underlining. The underline color follows the font color.	Word supports underlining text from Home > Underline or with Ctrl+U, and Microsoft also documents underline style and color options.	The Google Docs product page highlights online document creation, editing, and collaboration, but this page does not specifically describe a dedicated underline entry or underline style controls.	Notion supports underlining selected text with cmd/ctrl + U, mainly in page and text editing workflows.	Acrobat supports Underline text in its markup toolbar for reviewing and annotating PDF content.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The underline control is directly available in the mobile spreadsheet interface for quick formatting. Distinct: It fits cell-based emphasis in spreadsheet editing on Android.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft's official page focuses more on word-processing scenarios and also documents additional underline styles and color settings.	Compared with WPS: Google's product page emphasizes collaboration and document workflows rather than a dedicated underline operation for spreadsheet cells.	Compared with WPS: Notion's underline workflow is centered on page text editing shortcuts, not spreadsheet cell formatting.	Compared with WPS: Adobe's underline feature is mainly for PDF review comments rather than spreadsheet text formatting.

Overall Conclusion
For quick text emphasis in Android spreadsheets, WPS provides a direct underline entry inside the editing interface. Other products also support underline-related actions, but their official materials focus more on desktop word processing, online document collaboration, page editing, or PDF annotation.
