MSasu Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 One solution is to use +0178 (²), respectively +0179 (³) - however, this may not work on your station if your characters page is different than standard one. Regards, Mircea Quote
mkv123 Posted October 29, 2011 Author Posted October 29, 2011 Where to check the characters page...pl Quote
MSasu Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Where to check for characters page? Good question. I have not done that since MSDos times... Anyway, did you verified the above suggested key combinations on your workstation? Regards, Mircea Quote
JD Mather Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 When using the Alt 0179 ³ in addition to the font make sure you are using the right side Numerical Keypad to enter the 0179 - not the top row of keys. Windows Character Map can be accessed through Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools Quote
ReMark Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 What font are you using? Have you checked the character set? How about MText > Symbol? Quote
Dana W Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 In the mtext editor dialog, click on the @ sign, that's the "Symbol" and special character list. Then just click on the word squared or the word cubed. OR you can type into the mtext field \U+00B2 for superscript squared, or \U+00B3 for superscript cubed. AutoCAD will put in your superscript instead of the characters you typed much as it inserts the degree symbol when you type %%d. Those are zeros, not "o". The letters have to be upper case, and the \ and the + have to be there, and it doesn't matter which row of number keys you use. Quote
mkv123 Posted October 29, 2011 Author Posted October 29, 2011 What font are you using? Have you checked the character set? How about MText > Symbol? using font romand but font is not changing in symbol letter Quote
eldon Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 Or in Mtext, type a "^" after the 3, highlight the 3 and ^ and hit the Stack button. Quote

MSasu Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 The solutions from posts #2 (in addition with correction from #5), respectively from post #7 works too in single line text entities if were successful in MText. Regards, Mircea Quote
