How do I use superscript formatting with an axis label?

If this is not available, can a development request be submitted to allow for sub-scripting and super-scripting.

You could fake it, see my example below.  Type the text you want to appear as superscript in the SuperScript String Control.

Also remember that certain things are available as "fake" superscripts as part of the normal fonts.

I use the "square" all the time. 😉

This is a good workaround for a single placement. II'll use this for a superscript of 1/2 instead of sqrt(Hz).

I would like to replace the scientific notation 1E+3 with 1x10^3 where ^3 is a superscript for each label.

I could do the same if the axis labels were fixed, but with autoscaling, they will change.

 

Thanks. I'll use the small text placement for one of the workarounds.

Hi, Altenbach,

I hope you are still on the forum.

I need to do a supercript for power of 2 in axis label.

Where can I find the fake script like you showed?

thanks.

You could just copy/paste from my post above! 😄

 

(Alternatively, under windows run "charmap" browse the fonts, and pick the character you want)

thanks. 

 

charmap works, but not on every system. 

but it works on the one I need to have the superscript.  🙂

You can also simply place a temporary string control, indicator, or diagram constant, right-click...set ot to \-codes, enter "\B2", set it back to normal display and cut/paste the resulting text.

 

... there are a few more ways..... 😄
