Drawn underline
A drawn underline animates a short stroke beneath a specific word or phrase. It is an emphasis gesture, not decoration: the line tells the viewer where the argument turns.
When to use it
Use it under one tight phrase in a headline. Keep the stroke short, fast, and close to the baseline.
Common mistakes
Underlining too much copy; using a line under a full-width heading; making the underline style louder than the word.
How Impractical uses it
Impractical includes a text.underline operation that draws a compact stroke beneath a targeted element. Directors use it when scale or color would be too blunt.
