beamer \dot{X}

Post by CoolnessItself »

\dot{X} with beamer ends up as an egyptian symbol of sorts. Is there a way to correct this without resorting to different fonts that pervade the entire document? In other words I'd like to keep the entire presentation the same except for the \dot{X}.

Sorry, I guess this is dependent on usepackage{fourier} for whatever reason, which is required by something else I'm using.

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsfonts}
\usepackage[upright]{fourier}
\begin{document}
\frame{
\frametitle{The Equation}
\begin{eqnarray*}
\dot{X} &=& BLAH
\end{eqnarray*}
}
\end{document}

That's better

It's actually giving an A with an omega on it, but I still don't know how or why, I'm sure someone else will help you out

I don't know why it doesn't work either, but I guess you could try something like \overset{.}{X} as a temporary workaround.
