[Tex/LaTex] citing inside underline/strike out :tex

citingnatbibulem

I am working on an article, where I need to strike out or underline some of the sentences with citations. I try to do this as \uline{sentence1 \citep{reference1}, sentence continued \citep{reference2,reference3}}.
but it shows this warning extra }, or forgotten \end group.
I tried

To add \protect in front of each \citep or \citet which
doesn't work.
To add the citations as \mbox{\citex{reference1}}, which worked and warnings disappeared, but with \mbox the page breaks are also
disappearing.

So, are there any solutions how to strike out/underline keeping the citations intact inside?
PS:I'm using ulem and natbib.

Best Answer

This solution involves closing off your \uline and \sout invocations as you approach an invocation of \citep. For those references, use \ulineref and \soutref as defined in this MWE. Then, pick up the \uline and \sout where you left off, after the reference. The reference itself will not break across a line, though of course the \uline and \sout will.

The solution here adapts the censor package to do both underlining and strikeout. The depths of the lines can be changed with the \censorruledepth, as used in the \ulineref and \soutref macros. I tried to match those value to the existing line depths of the ulem package.

Note:

Usually, \tikzmark solutions require two runs. As there are nested uses of \tikzmark, this require at three runs. (Thanks @Werner for pointing this out).

The additional run is required as the nested tikzmark's locations depends on the location of the parent's \tikzmark. So, the first run stabilizes the location of the "outer" \tikzmark, the second stabilizes the location of the "inner" \tikzmark, and the third to do the actual drawing.
The \tikzmark is from Adding a large brace next to a body of text.
