Superscripts and Subscripts in graph titles and axes labels

As the title says,JMP really needs the possibility to superscript text in the graph titles and axis labels. The current workarounds unfortunately are cumbersome and do not meet the needs of users coming in chemistry and physics.

 

Worth noting that this is a standard function in most other competitors of JMP

Hello,

Is there really no way to add a supercript to a graph axis label? Didn't that ability previously exist under edit choose special characters?

please see the discussions here:

So, long story short, the "insert symbols" function will only allow you a minimal amount superscripts and subscripts. When you work in physics or chemistry (but certainly a variety of other fields) you need to be able to super-sub script numbers from 0-9 as well as letters from A-Z, ideally even all the symbols but maybe i'm being greedy
