No, attached is the sort of effect needed. The root note names have
their accidentals superscripted and then the quality of the chord (such
as 6 sus4) are tucked in under any such accidental and finally any
inversion (such as the B-flat in the example) is made smaller and placed
underneath the root name with a separator made from a slash character.

In this example you have put the notes in an unconventional order here
inside the <>. It does not affect the meaning but since the c is below
the other two in pitch, this has root C with F and A above. Replace it
with c' to get the chord F.
