Fractions in the title of a MATLAB figure
Jesper
figure, eg. “Public budget, A-A(-1)/Y”, where “A-A(-1)” is
the numerator and “Y” is the denominator.
I have tried exploiting the TeX code by stating “\frac{A-A(-
1)/Y}{Y}”, but this does not work. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jesper

Hi Jasper,
It is my impression that \frac is not a TeX command, but a LaTeX one.
You can place a fraction in the title/xlabel/ylabel by
title('$\displaylstyle\frac{A-A(-1)}{Y}$','interpreter','latex')
... I've added displaystyle so that I could *read* the resulting
fraction.
I don't know what is intended by the “ / ” macro pairs, but
these produce an error when included. What is the intention of these
macros?
Jesper
Thanks a lot - you quickly solved my problem. A minor
problem is that I receive the warning:
"Warning: Unable to interpret TeX string. Invalid LaTeX
string."
Nevertheless, the statement produces the title exactly as I
wanted it.
I'm not sure I understand your question regarding the " / "
macro pairs?
Best,
Jesper

I believe Jesper has Microsoft "Smart Quotes" turned on;
I have seen contextual evidence in other postings to suggest that
what shows up to us as
ampersand number-sign eight two two zero semi-colon
is the "opening smart quote", and that what shows up to us as
ampersand number-sign eight two two one semi-colon
is the "closing smart quote".
I haven't looked in detail at Jesper's headers, but in the cases
I have investigated before, there has always been a mismatch between
the character-set the poster was actually using, and the character
set claimed in the poster's MIME headers. Something along the
lines that the MIME headers claimed Windows 1292, but the 8220 and 8221
codes are UTF-8 that should have appeared as the single characters hex A1
and hex A3 (or thereabouts) if Windows 1292 were actually in effect.
So it has always been a compound problem: A) that the user had the
nuisance smart-quotes turned on; and B) that the user's actual character
set in use, UTF-8, is not what the user's posting software claims.

ylabel('$\displaystyle\frac{dW}{dN}*$','interpreter','latex')
I get the fraction bar, but it doesn't put "dW" or "dN" in
the numerator or denominator. Any ideas?

Any ideas how to use \frac in legend?

But it works next way:
obj=legend('$\displaystyle f(\theta) = k\frac{\theta}{(1+\theta^2)}$');
set(obj,'Interpreter','Latex');
clear obj
Yes! :)

You solved me a great problem.
can you please elaborate what is the $ function?
Thank you
