Alternative characters in text components

[Gammatech]

Hi,

Is there a way to access some of the "special" characters such as the 'plus or minus' character, rather than using +/- and also some of the Greek characters such as alpha, beta, gamma, capital Theta and Omega an probably capital and lower case Sigma as these would be useful to display.

I usually just open Microsoft Word, generate the symbol I want (Insert - Symbol from the menu), then cut and paste. Note that using weird symbols can cause issues on different computers because of available fonts. Stick with the standard ones.
