Write a subscript in front of a character?

Posted 7 years ago

Hello,

I'd like to ask you if there is any way how to get subscript in front of a character.

I need to get '1U2' where both numbers are in the subscript and are "fixed" to the 'U'. Is it possible?

I hope that I explained it well enough. Thank you very much.

Hi Sander,

A further question. Is it possible to add the 2 above the " i " instead of the dot? See sketch.

"\!(*OverscriptBox[([DotlessI]), (2)])"

if you want to really fine-tune it you would need Graphics with several Text primitives...

Hi Tobias,

Currently there are only regular sub/super scripts supported. However, you could just do a subscript on a space (or invisible space) then U followed by subscript 2. One could tune the spacing between the two subscript using negative and positive spaces:

"\!\(\*SubscriptBox[\(\[InvisibleSpace]\), \(12\)]\)\[NegativeVeryThinSpace]\!\(\*SubscriptBox[\(U\), \(34\)]\)"

enter image description here

Where do you want to use it? Inside a table? inside a graphics? or ...?
