When editing a text object, press Ctrl+M to open the Symbol Map where you can choose your font, choose your character and read the Alt code for that character.

Hi mshalini,

Regarding inserting gamma-dot in an axis title, you can enter the following escape-sequenced
text in the Title field in the Title&Format tab in the Axis dialog box ("Format: Axis Titles" menu).
(Or, on any text label, right-click, and choose "Properties" flyout):
  \ad(\g(g))
or 
  \ad(\f:Symbol(g))


There are also other ornamental marks such as above bar(\ab) and tilde(\at).
Search the keyword "escape sequence" in the Origin help. These may not work
in some older versions.

I am afraid that Origin does not have command for double dot.

In Origin 7.5, you can only use Symbol map to do the work.

However, in our latest Origin version, Origin 2017 , there are better ways to insert math symbol in Origin.
