I would like to realize a symbol that looks similar to a \Pi
, but with its two legs crossed, like in an \mathrm{X}
. In other words, I want the bar in \overline{\mathrm{X}}
to be moved down just a little bit, placing it on top of the \mathrm{X}
. Here is what I achieved so far, using code from Moving the bar on hbar:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\usepackage{xparse}
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\raisemath}[1]{\mathpalette{\raisem@th{#1}}}
\newcommand{\raisem@th}[3]{\raisebox{#1}{$#2#3$}}
\makeatother
\NewDocumentCommand{\crossedPi}{}{
\ensuremath{\mathrlap{\raisemath{-1.6pt}{
\overline{\phantom{\mathrm{X}}}}}\mathrm{X}}}
\begin{document}
$\Pi \crossedPi$ \\
$\mathrm{Set}_{\Pi} \mathrm{Set}_{\crossedPi}$
\end{document}
The \crossedPi
symbol in normal position looks just as I want it to look, but when the symbol is used in index position, as in \mathrm{Set}_{\crossedPi}
, the bar gets out of place.
What would be the perfect professional way to realize this symbol in a robust way, so that nothing gets out of place when used in index position?
