It doesn't do that for me. Either this has been fixed between your
question and now, or it depends on the specifics of your environment.
The following simple test puts the tilde on B in both cases:
In [22]:rcParams['text.usetex']
Out[22]:False
In [23]:text(0,0,r'$A\tilde{B}$')
Out[23]:<matplotlib.text.Text instance at 0x17b814e0>
In [24]:text(1,0,r'$A\tilde B$')
Out[24]:<matplotlib.text.Text instance at 0x17b81508>
This is with the TkAgg backend and current svn version of matplotlib.
What does this experiment produce for you?
However, the following might be considered a bug:
In [28]:text(1,1,r'$A\tilde{}B$')
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
exceptions.ValueError Traceback (most recent
call last)
/private/tmp/<ipython console>
...
ValueError: unrecognized symbol "\tild"
I think John Hunter once said that Matplotlib's mathtext attempts to
support a subset of LaTeX syntax, and any inconsistencies within that
subset should be considered bugs. Admittedly it doesn't seem very
likely that someone wants to but a raised tilde between two letters,
but the error message indicates that the parsing is somehow very
different from TeX.
