sure


Anyways, I'll defer it to when LyX 2.4 is released. At that stage, I also need 
to make sure that I can have Unicode fonts in computer listing.


Package fancyvrb and environment Verbatim can handle all unicode
characters. However, that does not mean that the used typewriter font
also has all glyphs in the font.

use lualatex and unicode-math. Write into the preamble

\usepackage{unicode-math}
\setmainfont{XITS-Regular.otf}
\setmathfont{XITSMath-Regular.otf}

\newcommand\plimsoll{\ensuremath{\scriptscriptstyle\circlehbar}}



then the following will work:


H${}^{\plimsoll}$ $G^{\plimsoll}$

\Huge
H${}^{\plimsoll}$ $G^{\plimsoll}$

Newcommand -- make symbol independent of font size

2023-07-30 Thread Bernt Lie via lyx-users
I'm trying to define the "plimsoll" symbol (used to indicate thermodynamic 
standard condition). I found on the internet the following suggestion:



\newcommand\plimsoll{{\circ\kern-0.495em-}}



Seems like a good number ("0.495" -- I've also tried with "0.415") depends on 
the font size... Here is what it looks like in a Section heading (ok with 
"0.415"):

[cid:image001.png@01D9C2D1.91829D70]



And here is what it looks like in displayed equation (ugly):

[cid:image002.png@01D9C2D1.91829D70]



  *   How can I make the definition so that it looks fine in any font size?
