Re: [NTG-context] Math accents set too close to capital
Hi,
Have you tries U+1024 or LETTER CAPITAL H WITH CIRCUMFLEX?
True not all Fonts might not have it and it is TEXT not Math.
Just a thought.
regards
Keith.

Hello all,
I'm trying to typeset 'H' with a circumflex (or hat) in math mode, but the
result is rather ugly when not using latin-modern. I've tried to redefine the
\hat macro to move the accent up a bit using \topaccent: is this the best
approach? Having to nest '$' does not seem right at all. (Also, for some
reason although I find \mathhat in enco-ini.mkiv, when I try to use it I get
undefined control sequence.)
Thanks,
Michael

Re: [NTG-context] Math accents set too close to capital
I did try that, but it doesn't seem to exist in my font. Besides, I'm inclined to agree with Khaled on math accents. I think that what I'm trying to do shouldn't be that hard, I just want the \mathhat accent to be placed a little higher. Something like \skew in plain TeX, but in the vertical direction.

Re: [NTG-context] Math accents set too close to capital
Hi Hans,
Thanks for the response. This is sort of what I wanted, except the \widehat is,
well, quite wide. So I hacked it around a bit to put the \widehat from a
capital 'I' on top of a capital 'H'. In case it happens to be helpful, the
final macro was
\def\hhat{H\kern-0.61em\widehat{\phantom{I}}\kern0.178em}
If I really cared, I wouldn't hard-code those numbers, but since they are in em
I'm not really too worried.

Re: [NTG-context] Math accents set too close to capital
Tangential to your issue, but nota bene: instead of $...$ for inline
math, ConTeXt lets you use \math{...} or \m{...}. Which is a bit more
explicit, and can be easier to debug. You might prefer it.
For display math, you really should use \startformula...\stopformula
if you aren’t using it already, because $$...$$ doesn't space
correctly. (Says the wiki. I don’t know it’s still true.)
Cheers,
Sietse

Indeed. And when you use \asciimode, you have no other choice (and
that's a good thing):
