Subscript letters?

[walter b]

Hi,

In the old forum, we had _and , but these don't work here anymore. What to do? TIA

d:-?

You can use _{x} inside of an in-line LaTeX expression to get A\(_{x}\), for example.
In-line LaTeX expression are \ ( expression \ ) without the spaces between the \ and the ( or ). Similarly, superscripts are done with ^{x}, A\(^{x}\), for example.

I could add [sub] but perhaps with the LaTex solution it is not needed?

I would appreciate [sub]! It seems more natural.

OK let's try the new sub and sup: H₂O, A². You can only use them one level deep but I think that was true of the old code as well.

Yes, it ^works _well \(b^{u^{t}}\) \(i_{t}\) \(c^{a^{n^{'^{t}}}}\) \(d_{o}\) \(t^{h^{i^{s}}}\)
