Text formatting in a text box that is displaying a variable

Jun 11, 2015

I have found that I can't display a superscript in a text box that contains a variable. I was using [%slider2% OF]. On the slide the "O" is shown as a superscript as in Degrees Fahrenheit. But when previewed the O was shown as a normal O.

Text formatting for Variable — Reference is not working in SL.

You can use º symbol for Degree.

Character code - 00BA

That works, but what is up with sub and super script?

Thanks for the update Leslie.

@Fred: as the issue is in resolving process, you can use extra text box for
the formatted text.
