Hi Januka and Joaquim, Yes, I would consider that indeed a bug. Correction of the textbox for superscripts and subscripts just never got implemented, although it was very easy to do. So I added it now in the SVN version and it will hence work without the -C in the future releases of GMT4 and GMT5. Regards, Remko On 16 Jan 2014, at 15:54, J.

Only used if -W or -G are specified. Append the unit you want (cm, inch, or point; if not given we consult PROJ_LENGTH_UNIT) or % for a percentage of the font size. > > Joaquim > >> >> Hi Januka, >> >> You can avoid that by using a white outline for your box, with the thickness you need to include the subscript (although it is true that the text will not appear fully centered in the vertical direction). >> >> David >> >> >> ----------------------------------------- >> David Pedreira >> Área de Geodinámica Interna >> Departamento de Geología >> Universidad de Oviedo >> C/ J.

In the attached figure, you can see that subscripted "w" in the "Mw" string extends beyond the boundaries of the background rectangle plotted with -W flag. I am using GMT 4.5.9. Perhaps this was fixed in a later version or that you could adjust the box height by modifying GMT defaults. Anyway, maps will be nicer if the whole subscripted letter is included within the background rectangle. >>> >>> My script: >>> pstext -J$proj -R$range -G255/0/0 -W255/255/255 -K -O -V -P >> $outps << END >>> -70.0 35.2 12 0 1 CT M@-w@-=7.0 >>> END >>> >>> Januka. >>> >>> -- >>> Januka Attanayake >>> Postdoctoral Research Associate >>> Laboratório de Sismologia >>> Complexo Interdisciplinar >>> Departamento de Física >>> Instituto Superior Técnico >>> Av.
