Hello,
I am working on AutoCAD and I would like to know how to set multiline text in superscript.
For example, I want "eme" in "20ème" to be in superscript. I know that you can set the numbers 3, 2, 1, and the letter n in superscript using symbols or special characters!
Can you help me?
Thank you.

    Hello,

    There's a much simpler way! Moreover, the solution I propose also works if you want to do subscripts.

    Exponents (for example m²):
    - Type m2
    - Then after the 2, type "^".
    - Select "2" and "^".
    - Click the stack icon and you're done!

    For subscripts: exactly the same thing except that "^" is before "2"!

    Have a great day everyone!

    Well, I finally found it.. it's super tricky
    The answer thanks to this video

    If this were to disappear from the web, here’s the procedure.

    To write for example 21 m2 (with the 2 in exponent),
    - type 21m2/2 (the 2/2 will be recognized as a fraction thus activating the Stack command)
    - Select the 2/2
    - Go to the Text Editor Tab > Formatting > Stack
    - Double-click on 2/2 (which now appears as a fraction)
    - In the dialog window, delete the subscript 2 and choose the Decimal style

    And there you go, thanks AutoCAD, don't forget to add a Superscript / Subscript button for the next version lol ;)
