From the drop-down menu, choose System Preferences. Click the apple button in the top left corner of your screen. Choose Greek Polytonic keyboard to start typing in greek, and click US keyboard again to go back to English. At the end of the string you want presented, you can just stop, but if you like to be complete, you could add '' at the end. To start typing in Greek, click the letters ENG next to the clock in the lower right corner of the screen.Then continue with the other elements of the string.If, however, you code with a leading capital letter and the rest lowercase, then the capital letter version will be used. If you code the entity name in all lower-case or all upper-case, the result will be the lower-case version of the character.Each Greek character must have its own leading ampersand and trailing semi-colon you cannot combine multiple entities. At that point, put in the HTML Character Entity equivalent of the character you want, starting with ampersand and ending with semi-colon.Then have the normal string until you need the Greek character.There must not be anything before that in the String property, not even a space. At the very beginning of the String property, put '' (or '').Model, Parameters, AICc, ∆AICc, w (and the 'c' in the ∆AICc should be a subscript).1) To create a string with Greek characters in a uicontrol, create the uicontrol with one of the noted styles, and set the String properly specially. Notice that column headers are now duplicated, and 'AIC' appears before the '∆'. This is what I get when I try, for example, ∆.įont(fontname = 'Times New Roman', part = 'all') %>%įlextable::display(col_key = 'dAICc', part = 'header',įprops = list(D = fp_text(font.family = 'Symbol'),Ī = fp_text(font.family = 'Times New Roman'),Ĭbit = fp_text(vertical.align = 'subscript'))) The code I'm using produces this table, but I want to replace the highlighted bit with delta. it seems possible because in the help pages here ( ) the author successfully uses μ to insert the 'μ' symbol (and I can too if I use his code, below), but I can't get it to work for delta using ∆ or Δ, if I replace μ with either code below.

I'm trying to get the greek symbol delta (∆) to display properly. I'd like to use flextable (or any other package) to format my headers properly. I am using RMarkdown to create a word document (I need the output to be in.
