Super and Subscript For Chemistry formulas

Super and Subscript For Chemistry formulas

Postby Ryan » Thu Oct 21, 2010 6:13 am

Love the app, I use it, my girlfriend uses it and my son uses it!

Is there anyway you can allow superscript and subscript to remain in tact when uploading from a spread sheet instead of having to insert <sub/> etc for each didgit?
Chemistry formulas are long enough as it is and to have to enter <sub/><sup/> for each didgit will be far to time consuming. Visual is key for me so being able to see Cr2O72- with proper scripts will make life much easier!

Thanks!
Ryan

Hi Ryan. I really don't have or know of a good alternative. Maybe copying <sup></sup> to clipboard and pasting as needed would help. At some point I might be able to utilize a web based rich text editor that would allow formating and auto-converting to html, but I don't have anything like this now or know of something that already exists that would be useful. Sorry about that.

Try typing it in an online rich text editor (http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm). Type in what you want, format, and then click "View Source"
