Insert Phi

[ASTDan]

Hello,

I am having a hard time inserting the Greek letter phi (Φ) into LabVIEW 

I have tried changeing fonts, typing Alt+232, and cutting and pasting from word.

I am using LabVIEW 8.6.1 in Windows XP

Thanks

Dan

Which font are you using?

In Arial, code 232 is a small e with a backwards accents.  The small phi is unicode U+03C6.

p is spelled 'pi'

'phi' is written as f

I have tried unicode and I need to mix Latin and Greek letters.  I am trying to insert this in a column header to represent Phase.

I guess I'm not understanding the problem here. Just type f in the column header, select the text, and then use the font menu to change the font to Symbol.

I need to add additional text i.e.

Φ Short

Column headers only support 1 kind of font not mixed fonts

I also need to change the font size.  When I do that I get the weird character shown

That's true. OK. Then, I suggest you cheat.  Place some spaces before the word "Short" and then place a free label that's the phi character over the spaces. Not clean, but it works.
