I solved this = getting what I wanted by writing my own macro: \define[3]\physicalquantitye{\hbox{#1 \times \unit{10^#2 #3}}} % \physicalquantitye{number}{exponent}{unit} -- gives short form of unit That makes sense to me and is working fine. There are a few more like this on the wiki (units page), in case anyone finds them useful. On 7 Dec 2011, at 21:27, Marco wrote:
Another thing:
\unit{3.4e-5} yields to 3.4⁻⁵ that's expected according to the manual. But how to get 3.4·10⁻⁵ (either with \cot or \times)?
