hi, i am trying to label a plot axis with the equivalent of the latex $n_*$. i initially tried
expression(paste(italic(n)["*"])) but this made the * absolutely tiny and centred about midway wrt the n. then expression(paste(italic(n)[textstyle("*")])) made the * about the right size but now it looks more like a superscript than a subscript. does anyone have an idea of how to get the * to the "right" subscript position (ie. somewhere near the baseline of the n)? thanks! best regards, andrew. -- Andrew B.
