Re: about label

[Jaison Kurian <jaison@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gao Rongzhen,

                From user manual (Ch6 Sec6.1.  Ferret font and text color )
 "fonts AS and AC include the complete set of ASCII punctuation characters 
and ignore the special PPLUS interpretations of the characters "^" (superscript),
  "_" (subscript), and "@" (change font or pen)"

  That is why you are not getting the implied super sript with " @AS SST(^oC) ".
But AS(AC) is simlar to SR(CR) exept in the treatment of special characters.
So my suggection is to use AS or AC only when you need to print the special
characters "as is" (to print "_" etc.). If you want to keep the font style 
same as AS but to get superscript with "^" then either don't specify any 
font (because default font SR is similar to AS) or specify SR. Please note 
that these special characters will be effective with all other font styles.

  When you are specifying the font TR (in "go bold" also you are setting the
"default font PPL DFLTFNT" as TR, have a look at ferret/go/bold.jnl) for 
labels, since it interprets the special characters, you will get the implied
superscript with "^".

  To get a "degree" marking, you can use "#" instead of "^o" as shown in the
example below.

Hope This Helps

With Regards 

Jaison

 label 2 9 -1 0 0.15 @CR SST(^oC) CR (same as AC)
 label 2 8 -1 0 0.15 @AC SST(^oC) AC (same as CR)
 label 2 7 -1 0 0.15 @SR SST(^oC) SR (Default, same as AS) 
 label 2 6 -1 0 0.15 @AS SST(^oC) AS (same as SR)
 label 2 5 -1 0 0.15     SST(^oC) Default (SR, same as AS)
 label 2 4 -1 0 0.15     SST(#C)  Default ! # also works
