Subject: Labelling with textext
Date: Sat, 13 Feb 2010 14:46:16 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cf53c9501002131246i3522a43akb9199940a7091487@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'm trying to typeset a numerical label (in math mode) and have space
for a - sign (but not actually typeset the -) after the number in the
case where the number itself is negative. I am trying this
label.bot(textext("$" & decimal(x) & "\hphantom{-}$"),(x*u,ay*u));
which fails. If I remove the \hphantom command, i.e.,
label.bot(textext("$" & decimal(x) & "$"),(x*u,ay*u));
the command is successful, but the number being labeled is not exactly
horizontally centered below the point in question since the - symbol
preceding the number pushes it a little to the right. Thoughts on how
to achieve my desired \hphantom effect?
Thanks,
