   Well, by trial and error I found the problem: I tried entering an inline
math string along with the text of the axis label. That was not acceptable.
But, entering the text first, then selecting the math tool for the symbol,
worked.

   Is there a trick to embedding a symbol or short equation within a text
string in Ipe?

Thanks,

Rich
