In ZIM LabelLetters, is there a way to apply superscript and subscript?

Questions
1

In ZIM LabelLetters, i try to use , but without success. Is there a way to apply superscript or subscript to letters? in ZIM, is there a work around to handling text superscript within labels?

2

subscript can be handled but i still cannot figure out how to handle superscript. Maybe with special font or special character?

3

CanvasLatex might be able to handle it. Or you can always access any letter in LabelLetters and .mov(0,-10) or some such.

Thank you!

I have tried to find any documentation related to Canvas Latex but without success. I just wanted to do simple things such as:

2025 BUDGET
$20DOWN

where $ will be superscript with small font and down will be subscript with smaller font and in red color with canvas Latex. I thugh it will be easy. If it cannot be done, then i have no choice to go with ZIM Tile.

Something like this will probably work:

const text = new LabelLetters("The cost is $20").center();
text.labels[12].sca(.7).mov(0,-10)

The spacing did not change, but you could pass in an array of spacings if really needed or mov() the letters after the $.

This is the most flexible way! Thank You very much! I will try with ZIM LabelLetters containing different fonts. It should work like a charm. ZIM is amazing, so is Dr. Abstract!
