Hi, How can I have the +/- symbol where the + is on top of the - symbol, reading plus or minus. For example, a standard deviation would have this sign. Tex code is fine. TIA. Hope that's clear. myriam
Type "\pm" then hit the "space key" in math mode or you'll find it in the math panel under "Operators" or you could use TeX code by inserting "$\pm$" in an ERT box.
