How can I shift a piece of text from the centre of the screen to the right by a certain number of pixels?

I have a piece of text in the centre of the screen (a + symbol) and would like duplicate it but shift it to the right by a number of pixels so that I have two + symbols next to each other (they need to be an exact distance apart), but I don't know how to.
The code below is what I have that makes it go into the centre of the screen
Screen('TextSize', windowPtr, 50);
DrawFormattedText(windowPtr, '+', 'center', 'center', [0 0 0]);
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Neither of those two functions are part of MATLAB. What are their definitions?

Hi Joshua,
I understand that you are tring to plot two "+" signs, one in the centre of the screen and other shifted right by some distance. And I assume that these symbols you want to plot on a figure window.
You can use "figure" and "text" function of MATLAB to plot such texts.
symbol = '+';
distance = 20; % shift distance in pixels
% Create a figure
figure;
% Plot the first symbol at the center
text(0, 0, symbol, 'HorizontalAlignment', 'center', 'VerticalAlignment', 'middle', 'FontSize', 20);
% Plot the second symbol shifted to the right
text(distance, 0, symbol, 'HorizontalAlignment', 'center', 'VerticalAlignment', 'middle', 'FontSize', 20); % Example font size
% Set the axis limits to ensure both symbols are visible
xlim([-distance, distance]);
% Set the aspect ratio to ensure equal scaling in both x and y directions
axis equal;
To hide the axis ticks and labels use can add "axis off" in the code provided.
For more information you can refer these documentations:
Hope it helps.
