Bug summary

There seems to be a different alignment for the minus sign depending on if the string contains only the minus sign or more characters when LaTeX is used.

Code for reproduction

importmatplotlib.pyplotaspltplt.rcParams.update({"text.usetex":True})plt.text(0,0,'$-3$',fontsize=40)plt.text(0.2,0,'$-$',fontsize=40)plt.text(0.28,0,'$3$',fontsize=40)plt.ylim(-0.1,0.1);plt.axis('off');
