Does anybody know a way to mix mathtext and regular text, for example in the axis label?
Something like
xlabel(r’$\rho^2$ along axis’)
doesn’t work. I know this is mentioned in the manual.
Just wondering if somebody knows a workaround rather than using the full Latex option.
Thanks, Mark
Don't have time to test now, but do I recall that \text is
implemented ->
xlabel(r'\\rho^2 \\text\{ along axis\}')
Cheers,

Does r'$\rho^2 \text{along axis}'
work/ I have no idea if it should, but that's how it's done in an equation environment in LaTeX.

If you have dvipng and set text.usetex : True in your matplotlibrc file, then
xlabel(r'\\rho^2 along axis') works (and looks darn pretty thanks to Darren).
