I confirmed that copying the D with the overbar was problematic when I used the equation editor, so I figured there had to be another way to get a line on top of a letter.
So she asked me.Įquations are one of the few areas in Word that I’ve never tackled, so, as I told Steph, it was all a new experience for me. She could get the line using Microsoft Word’s equation editor, but as she had to define what the D with the overbar/overline/overscore meant, she wanted to insert it into the Terms list too. So, what’s a macron? It’s a bar or line over the top of a word or letter, such as those used to indicate the mean in mathematical equations.Īnd why did I learn this word? Because Stephanie, one of my team’s authors, wanted a line over the top of her capital D. I learnt a new word the other day: macron.
