Say, I have two strings 'a = 2' and 'bbb = 641', now I display them in a column using the command
display(['a = 2', char(10), 'bbb = 641'] )
it looks like
a = 2
bbb = 641
how can I align them with respect to '=':
a = 2
bbb = 641

Use specific format string if you want a specific format...
>> fprintf('%8s = %4d\n','a',2, 'bbb',641)
a = 2
bbb = 641

The default is Helvetica. To see the issue, try
hT=text(0.4,0.2,{sprintf('%8s = %4d\n','a',2, 'bbb',641)});
for i=1:4
pause(0.75),set(hT,'fontname','Courier')
pause(0.75),set(hT,'fontname','Helvetica')
end
