Just as the title, how can I input superscript without using Superscript[x,y]? To be more specific, I'm not trying to type Power in 2D form, I just need Superscript i.e.

FullForm@$x^y$

Superscript[x, y]

  • You need Superscript or Power that looks like Superscript? If the former, you'd better emphasize this in your question to avoid confusion. – xzczd Dec 30 '15 at 08:42
  • I need Superscript just as Subscript, i.e, FullForm[$x^y$]= Superscript[x,y]. – xjtan Dec 30 '15 at 08:50
  • You need to add something like @Karsten7. in your post or the commenters won't receive a reminder. As mentioned in the former comment, you'd better clarify this point in your question, this time I've done it for you. – xzczd Dec 30 '15 at 09:03
  • Then what exactly do you want? A short cut for Superscript like Ctrl+_ for Subscript? A button that'll create a template for Superscript? Or anything other than typing Superscript directly? (@JasonB I think I should remind you. ) – xzczd Dec 30 '15 at 09:10
  • @xzczd - remind me? I'm very confused by what is wanted here. Ctrl+6 does what is needed, literally inputting a superscript without typing Superscript. There is a button in the upper left corner of the Basic Math Input palette as well – Jason B. Dec 30 '15 at 09:22
  • @JasonB The question is indeed confusing at the beginning, but now OP has clarified it in the comment: he/she needs Superscript rather than Power. They're totally different, though looks the same in the front end. BTW you may also feel this post interesting. – xzczd Dec 30 '15 at 09:26

  • Yeah, Mr. Wizard's answer works great for this – Jason B. Dec 30 '15 at 09:38
