I'm experiencing problems with text in static text boxes. As an example of what is happening I have below a print screen of a figure window where I've typed 'test' on the xlabel text box. This will show as pictured.
Interestingly after entering the text it will show OK, as seen on the other print screen.
Any hints on what might be causing this?

I did not know this could be done ;-)

Hi Pedro,
You could try clicking on 'Plot Tools' in the figure window and then click on the xlabel and change the 'Interpreter' option to 'latex'. Now try plotting the figure again and change the xlabel as you did before.

Hi Srijith,

Thank for your suggestion, however this will not solve my problem since the latex interpreter will only be active after entering the text, not while I'm typing.

As an example, I've typed $\alpha$ on the xlabel. The printscreen while typing and after text input are show below.
