Hi there,

I am using \dot to put at dot on the word but the dot seem very small. Is there any command that can give bigger dot size than \dot.

Thanks in Advance.
Aman

Hi Aman,

welcome to the board!

You could use the accent package, like I posted here:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{accents}
\newcommand*{\dt}[1]{%
  \accentset{\mbox{\large\bfseries .}}{#1}}
\newcommand*{\ddt}[1]{%
  \accentset{\mbox{\large\bfseries .\hspace{-0.25ex}.}}{#1}}
\begin{document}
$\dot{x} \neq \dt{x}$

$\ddot{x} \neq \ddt{x}$
\end{document}
