Hi,
How can I put a small circle on top of a character in math mode (for the curious this is needed when one defines the interior of a set…).
I tried the following, but the small circle is too far away from the character A. I am sure I had an ugly solution for this in plain TeX some years ago but I woul dlike to have an elegant solution in ConTeXt.
%%% begin interior-of-a-set.tex
\showgrid
\starttext
\mathtriplet{A}{\circ}{}
\startformula
\mathtriplet{A}{\circ}{}
\stopformula
\stoptext
%%% end interior-of-a-set.tex
Thanks for your help: OK

The proper solution in LaTeX is to use the \mathring accent (I think that amssym package defines that). The accent should also be available in ConTeXt (sorry cannot check right now, but a simple grep of char-def.lua should confirm that).

Indeed I understand that the stackers structures are for putting things such as a circle or a star on top of another character or constructs. In fact, in terms of readability, the result of your new command \interiorset{K} is better than that of \mathring{K}, but the « K » coming out with \interiorset is set in Roman, while it should be math italic (or whatever font is used in math mode). Also the white space around it is not yet correct. I’ll test what you will have added in the next beta and then put an entry on the wiki about mathstackers.
