Dear R-users. I'm struggeling to fix the superscript of a label of a figure axis. For some reason R doesn't recognize the "hat" symbol. plot(1,1,xlab="ligth intensity (PAR)",ylab=expression("mass Pteridium rhizomes" (gr/0.25m^2))) A very similiar scriptline does not give any problem at all: plot(1,1,xlab=expression("balsa plot basal area" (m^2/ha)),ylab="light intensity (PAR)") Someone? _________________________________________________________________ s.

Try: plot(1,1,xlab="ligth intensity (PAR)",ylab=expression("mass Pteridium rhizomes" (gr/0.25*m^2))) ________________________________________ Daniel Moreira, MD Research Associate Duke University Medical Center DUMC 2626, MSRB-I Room 455 571 Research Drive Durham, North Carolina 27710 Telephone: (919) 681-7132 Fax: (919) 668-7093 E-mail: daniel.moreira@duke.edu David Douterlungne <daviddouter@hotmail.com> Sent by: r-help-bounces@r-project.org 02/14/2009 12:21 AM To <r-help@r-project.org> cc Subject [R] superscript Dear R-users.

David and Danel, Indeed, the missing symbol is "*". Now it works, although, with a change of font in the brackets of the axis=label.
