how can I seperate between points id and scatter markers in figure?

example;

x=[1000;1100;1200];

y=[2000;2100;2200];

points_id={'p100';'p200';'p300'};

figure(1),scatter(x, y, 'b^');grid on;

text(x, y, points_id);

%There is no space between points id and scatter markers in figure so I need to seperate them a bit more for more conveniently looking.

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

text(x + 10, y, points_id);    %adjust the "10" until it looks good

So something like this? If not, please clarify.

x=[1000;1100;1200];

y=[2000;2100;2200];

points_id={'p100';'p200';'p300'};

figure(1),scatter(x, y, 'b^');grid on;

text(x, y, points_id);

hold on;
plot(x,y);

% Calculate distances
dists = hypot(x(1:end-1)-x(2:end),y(1:end-1)-y(2:end));

% Calculate midpoints for text
midx = conv(x,[0.5 0.5],'valid');
midy = conv(y,[0.5 0.5],'valid');
text(midx,midy,num2str(dists))

I think you misunderstood me, I just want to seperate points id and scatter markers a bit more than default view. There is no space between them that's why I need more space. Sorry for late.
