Ok, thanks. I hope I am understanding. Would you be able

Hm, I don't know about mpl's mathtext mode, but I'm actually always
working in usetex mode. Unfort
All my attempts at using TeX spacing failed too. What do you have in mind?
e.g.
text(xlim()[1],1.02,r'$r^\;2$~~~',horizontalalignment='right')

Thanks. Unfortunately this gives me the same results: no good. Something is
stripping whatever filler is there on the right.
text(xlim()[1],1.01,'string'.ljust(10,' '),horizontalalignment='right')

Hello. My problem is as follows:
(ipython --pylab)
from pylab import *
pp=plot([0,0],[1,1])
text(xlim()[0],1,'Need padding ',horizontalalignment='left')
text(xlim()[1],1,'Need padding ',horizontalalignment='right')
The second case does not do what I want, which is to pad the text on
