Hi, I have created a graph layer and added a text graph object to the layer. I would like this text to include formatting (ie subscript) and a couple unicode characters. I currently have the following:

                        GraphObject gresults = gl.CreateGraphObject(GROT_TEXT,"Results");
                        //setup results string to be displayed
			string slstr, xcstr, cstr;
			//convert doubles to strings and set decimal places to be displayed
			slstr = ftoa(t,"*3");
			xcstr = ftoa(xc,"*6");
			cstr = ftoa(c,"*5");
			string strresults = "t = " + slstr + " Å\n2q_c = " + xcstr + "°\nc = " + cstr + " Å";
			gresults.Text = strresults;


where in the string strresults, I would like the t to be a capital greek L (unicode 004C), the q to be a theta (unicode 03B8), and the _c to be a subscript c. For the unicode I tried entering the string as "\\x(004C)" but this just gives me a regular "L".

Hi,

The syntax to insert a unicode is shown in this example:


void test_unicode()
{
	GraphLayer gl = Project.ActiveLayer();
	GraphObject go = gl.GraphObjects("Text");
	go.Text = "\\g(\\(x004C))"; // Insert greek L
}


Regards!

Sean

Worked great! Here is the code I ended up using for the text box if anyone is searching for this in the future:

                        gl = Project.ActiveLayer();
			GraphObject gresults = gl.CreateGraphObject(GROT_TEXT,"Results");
			
			//setup results string to be displayed
			string slstr, xcstr, cstr;
			//convert doubles to strings and set decimal places to be displayed
			slstr = ftoa(t,"*3");
			xcstr = ftoa(xc,"*6");
			cstr = ftoa(c,"*5");
			string strresults = "\\g(\\(x004c)) = " + slstr + " Å\n2\(x03B8)\-(c) = " + xcstr + "°\nc = " + cstr + " Å";
			gresults.Text = strresults;
