Subject: units: \spacedimensionstrue fails when using unit powers
Date: Wed, 02 Aug 2006 15:47:07 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1G8MgN-0001J6-8s@approximate.corpus.cam.ac.uk> (raw)
I'm considering switching from my units macros to the units module. In
doing that I'm trying \spaceddimensionstrue (found in the m-units.tex
source), which is the most common convention in physics tables and
books, rather than using \Times to separate quantities with a dot.
But it seems not to take account of the exponent in the first unit when
putting space between the first and second units. Here's a minimal
example:
\usemodule[units]
\spaceddimensionstrue
\starttext
% this looks fine
\startformula
\Meter\Second
\stopformula
% this needs a thinspace after the superscripted 2
\startformula
\Square\Meter\Second
\stopformula
\stoptext
