For some bizarre reason, I think Articulate removed the superscript and subscript shortcut icons from the toolbar. And the keyboard shortcut is not working. This requires us to dive deeper into Storyline to complete the task, unless I am missing something. I am going to request restoring the super and subscript icons to the toolbars (as a new feature). Hope this helps.
Thank you for the response! Yes, I highlight only the symbol I want to convert to superscript, but the results are inconsistent. Sometimes it turns the whole text box to superscript, sometimes it converts the symbol and then all the text that follows (and one time it converted only the symbol correctly). My colleague suggested it might be the size of the text box, but that doesn't make sense to me.
I always run the program updates, close out of Storyline when I'm not using it, etc.

Thanks, Leslie! It had sorted itself out on other projects, but I'm running into the issue again with my new project. I've uploaded it via the link. Thanks for all your help! -Alicia

According to this link, http://www.articulate.com/support/storyline-2/superscript-and-subscript-keyboard-shortcuts-arent-working, in Storyline Version 2, select the character you want to superscript, go to the Home tab on the ribbon, click the arrow in the lower right corner of the Font group, and mark the Superscript or Subscript box on the Font window.

Hello Pat!
You will need to select the text, or the symbol, the under the Home tab, in the fonts section, click on the small arrow, then select superscript:
Hope this helps!
I did stumble across the buried superscript, but thanks for the reply.
Nice to know there is help out there.
Patty
Thanks for the update Pat!
And Patrick, it looks like you were posting as I was typing :)
Is there a way to make sure the superscript formatting does not apply to the entire text box and only the symbol?
Hi Alicia, and welcome to E-Learning Heroes. 😊
Thanks for reaching out and letting us know what you're currently working on.
