madaryl Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 hi to all, i got a new job..... all day in front of computer using autocad LT 2000.... most of the time we input a value that has a superscript of sometimes subscript.... what's the easiest way to do this in autocad? thanks a lot in advance!

Kate M Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 In mtext, the "^" symbol stacks fractions without any lines -- so if you type "3^ " (note the space), you get a superscript of 3. Putting the space first makes a subscript. I don't think you can do this in single-line text, though (without actually having two pieces of text).

madaryl Posted March 5, 2004 Author Share Posted March 5, 2004 thanks but i can't get any of the subscript or superscript with that ^ if i type daryl 3^ i would get the same... as i type in.... using mtext.... the same in single line text is there another way? thanks sorry for the delay of my response.....

Kate M Posted March 5, 2004 Share Posted March 5, 2004 Sorry, looks like I forgot a step. Once you've typed in "3^ " in mtext, you have to highlight it, then click the "stack" button. (Or right click and select "stack.") Hope that works for you... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madaryl Posted March 6, 2004 Author Share Posted March 6, 2004 thanks i got it.....

Kate M Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 As far as I know, there are just three types of stacks. From the help file: Slash (/) stacks text vertically, separated by a horizontal line.Pound sign (#) stacks text diagonally, separated by a diagonal line. Carat (^) creates a tolerance stack, which is not separated by a line. You can set the Autostack properties to control which options are used -- mine automatically turns "/" fractions into diagonal ones. One more note: Versions below 2000i don't support diagonal fractions -- just vertical ones. Glad it worked for you. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HC2020 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Hi, I am trying to write d2uw/dy2, this is the second derivative of of uw over y. Now d2uw (2 is superscript and w is subscript) is straight forward (using ^ and staking option), Problem is I can't write d2uw / dy2 in a horizontal fraction format. Anyone has an idea on how you can superscript, subscript and have it all in a horizontal fraction ? Many thanks in advanced HC2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
