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,
