Can one use the inline formatting to superscript within the text of the INSET statement to the SGPLOT procedure?

You must use the escape sequence (*ESC*)
You must use the escape sequence (*ESC*)
Well that worked:
(*ESC*){unicode chi}(*ESC*){sup '2'}
Note that 2 is quoted, but I used single quotations because this become a double-quotation mark text-string for the INSET statement:
INSET "text-string" <... "text-string-n"> </options>;
Note, however, so did `{unicode chi}`{super '2'}, where my ODS ESCAPECHAR is "`".
So my issue was that I did not quote the argument (?):
SAS documentation:
ODS ESCAPECHAR Statement
Using the ODS ESCAPECHAR Functions
Here is the syntax for the ODS ESCAPECHAR functions:
escape-character{function-name <<arg-1 <arg-2<arg-n>>>> }
SUPER Function
^{SUPER <superscript-value>}
superscript-value
can be a numeric, alphanumeric, or a character value. This value is written above and immediately to one side of another character.
Always ecstatic and humbled to hear from you data _null_!
Thank you,
Kevin
