SYmbols like ASCII or Unicode July 9, 2017 9:57AM UTC
Apostolos Michaloudis 28 Posts	Hi. Is there a posibility to add symbols like the copyright symbol or to writ m1, with number 1 being a subscript? I tried something like m\u2081 but it does't work. Post edited July 9, 2017 at 11:26 AM EST. Login to reply

Francisco Esquembre 237 Posts	Hi, where do you want to add them? In a Java or in a JavaScript Simulations? In a label or in a text drawable? In a HtmlView interface element (for JavaScript simulations) try this: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_symbols.asp Hope this helps. Paco Login to reply \| Condense

Apostolos Michaloudis 28 Posts	Mr Esquembre, thank you for your repply. I use Java-flavor simulations. I want to add them as String name in a label for example. Or in a slider i want to write "v1 = 0.00 m/s" but i want the number 1 as subscript. Is this possible? Post edited July 13, 2017 at 11:04 AM EST. Login to reply \| Condense

Francisco Esquembre 237 Posts	Hum. I am afraid that it is not. Plotting panels accept kind of LaTeX style for titles, so you can write (in a Plotting panel title) $v_{1}$ But not in standard Labels, sorry. (Javascript is much better in this sense, since it allows HTML.) Paco Login to reply \| Condense
