adding a single dot above letters

Hi,


I'm having trouble finding a way to place a dot above letters to notate the time derivative of variables when typing on my macbook. I've tried the character viewer and the symbols aren't shown on there. I was wondering if there is a code you can use. I mostly need these symbols for writing equations in OneNote.


Thanks

MacBook

Go to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and add the ABC Extended keyboard and then select it in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen. To add a dot to character type option shift w after it. ẋ
