Text Formatting ⇒ Bar above and below character

[AdiJAIN1129]

Hi, so I need to be able to put a bar both above and below the same character. I know I can use \bar{X} to put a bar above X and use accents to put one below, but what will allow me to have a bar over the letter and a bar below the same letter?

Thanks!

Welcome to the LaTeX community!

Do you need text accents or math accents?

Math: $\underline{v}$ $\bar{v}$ $\underline{\bar{v}}$

There's also \underbar but its contents are placed in text mode so it's not suitable for mathmode.

There's also the accents package for a math underbar (and other things):

Ah, I didn't realize you could combine the use of underaccent and bar like that. That's perfect, thanks!
