fractions

[Lorraine Clinch]

On SL 7 theres a button when editing text which puts writing either at the upper line or lower (not explaining properly). Wasn’t available in SL 5 though.Like this do you mean?

thanks Lorraine, I know about the ps ss button but thats not what I’m after it doesnt quite give the desired effect (unless there is a setting to adjust)
In the character map a fraction looks like this. but it means using alt and the code to type it direct. in word it can be set to auto correct to a proper looking fraction but I dont know if this can be done in SL.
Its just a pain when typing menus with lots of burgers in them!

Using alt and 0189 give you ½, alt and 0188 gives you ¼ and alt 0190 is ¾.

A pain to use regularly but why not do a ctrl c on the ½ and then paste ½½½½

I’m not familiar with SL so l don’t know if it’s that easy to paste?

Anyway way you should know Peter never do things by ½½½½½½½½.

Thats what I was trying to avoid, cut and paste text is not that good in sl

Cut & paste WAS great until they did away with the ‘compose box’ in e6…if it ain’t broke DON’T FIX IT!!!.
