SubsuperscriptBox
SubsuperscriptBox[x, y, z]
is the low-level box representation for
in notebook expressions.
Details and OptionsDetails and Options
- SubsuperscriptBox is the low-level representation of Subsuperscript. Except for low-level notebook expression manipulation, SubsuperscriptBox should not need to be used directly.
- SubsuperscriptBox[x, y, z] can be input as
when inside
. - To create a SubsuperscriptBox in a notebook, use either Ctrl+_ to begin a regular subscript or Ctrl+^ to begin a regular superscript. After typing the first script, use Ctrl+% to move to the opposite script position. Ctrl+Space moves out of the subscript or superscript position.
- In StandardForm, SubsuperscriptBox[x, y, z] is interpreted on input as Power[Subscript[x, y], z].
- The baseline of SubsuperscriptBox[x, y, z] is taken to be the baseline of x.
- SubsuperscriptBox[x, y, z] is usually output with y and z in a smaller font than x.
- In StandardForm, explicit SubsuperscriptBox objects are output literally. You can use DisplayForm to see the display form of such objects.

Basic Examples (3)Basic Examples (3)
Display a letter with a subscript and a superscript:
| In[1]:= |
Out[1]//DisplayForm= | |
A SubsuperscriptBox form is typically interpreted as a power of a Subscript expression:
| In[1]:= |
| Out[1]= |
| In[2]:= |
Out[2]//FullForm= | |
The standard formatting for a power of a Subscript expression uses SubsuperscriptBox:
| In[1]:= |
Out[1]//FullForm= | |
The formatted result looks like this:
| In[2]:= |
| Out[2]= |
