Placemark name with superscript

[gdhuynh]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to overlay a line of text over the GE map such as "0.001 mcg/m^3"

 

<Placemark><name>0.001 mcg/m^3</name><description>...</description>

<gx:balloonVisibility>1</gx:balloonVisibility<Style><IconStyle><scale>0</scale></IconStyle>

<LabelStyle><scale>1.2</scale><color>8800eeff</color></LabelStyle></Style>

<Point><altitudeMode>absolute</altitudeMode><coordinates>-77.4950790405273,39.467945098877,540</coordinates></Point>

</Placemark>

 

However, I would like to use superscript for number 3 instead of ^3.

Is there a way to accomplish that in Google Earth Pro ?

 

Thanks

The only way I can think would be to use a Unicode charactor

http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/b3/index.htm

might work?

KML itself can't define a superscript (or any other formatting) in the <name>

Thanks Barry.

Still don't know how to apply Unicode in Notepad editor of KML file.

Can you explain further on how to enter into KML file?

Thanks again

I just tried

<name>0.001 mcg/m&#179;</name>

(using the entity from the link I provided) 

Seems to work in GEP at least :)

Wow! It works magically!

Thanks a million Barry. I wish they documented somewhere in the KML site.
