Attach

Subscript, superscripts, and limits.

Attachments can be displayed either as sub/superscripts, or limits. Typst automatically decides which is more suitable depending on the base, but you can also control this manually with the scripts and limits functions.

If you want the base to stretch to fit long top and bottom attachments (for example, an arrow with text above it), use the stretch function.

Example
