Up till now I accepted this as 'glitches', but if some new effort is put into TLatex, it would be nice if the spacing/alignment issues could be revisited... I often use TLatex syntax in axis titles, and I find that super- and/or subscripts are somtimes badly placed. It seems to be a rather subtle effect, but the follwing might shed some light on the issues involved: Try: TCanvas *c1=new TCanvas("c1","Canvas #1",500,500) tmpH=gPad->DrawFrame(0,0,1,10) TPaveText *P=new TPaveText(0.1,4.5,0.95,8) P->AddText("10.0 < |P| < 100.0") P->AddText("1.0 < |P_{t}| < 10.0") P->Draw() P->SetTextFont(132) P->Draw() On my screen, the space between the P and the subscript t is very large. Now, if I rescale the TPavetext (by mouse), it becomes clear that the placing of the subscript depends on the size of the text. This probably has a good reason, but if it can be changed, it might be worthwhile... Best regards, Marco van Leeuwen.
