How to write beveled fractions like ${}^a/_b$?
In contrast to $\frac{a}{b}$ and $a/b$ (see this question).

There is the undocumented option Beveled in the FractionBox
FractionBox[a, b, Beveled -> True] // DisplayForm

One can use Style and FractionBoxOptions to set Beveled:
Plot[Sin[x], {x, -2 Pi, 2 Pi},
Ticks -> {Pi Range[-2, 2, 1/2], Automatic},
BaseStyle -> {FractionBoxOptions -> {Beveled -> True}}]
It doesn't look too good here, though:
This looks ok,
Style[3 Pi/2, FractionBoxOptions -> {Beveled -> True}]
but not in the "Label" style,
Style[3 Pi/2, FractionBoxOptions -> {Beveled -> True}, "Label"]

2$\begingroup$ Thanks for the detailed example! Fractions in the "Label" style is looks ok for me (Mathematica 9.0.1, Linux): i.sstatic.net/nnbza.png $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 8, 2013 at 14:34

$\begingroup$ @ybeltukov It seems to be better on Linux than on my Mac. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 8, 2013 at 14:40
