Bolding half a word

Is it possible to Bold half of a word? I want to be able to bold the root of a word. Like Flying

Flying, it dosn't work

Hi John,

Unfortunately the current syntax for bold text only works for whole words. One workaround that I can suggest is to use the font size syntax to slightly increase the size of the first half of the word, instead of the bold syntax, like this:

%(font:+2)Fly%ing

Let me know if this works for you.

Actually, I was able to get it to work the way I described.

%(font:+1)Fly%ing

Well, I put an asterisk on both sides of Fly within the font percent symbols and I was able to bold half the word without changing the font size.

This is the code. %(font:+1)*Fly*%ing

Thanks for the update, John. It's a nice trick that you've found, combining the font and bolding syntax.
