How to Keep a Character in A Fixed Position?

I have created a Static Text that shows the current values of A and B:

A: 1     B: 2

When A’s value has more than one digit, it pushes B forward, and therefore B is no longer in its previous location:

A: 1234567     B: 2

Is there any trick to hold B in a fixed position regardless of the number of A’s digits? So it would like that:

A: 1           B: 2

A: 1234567     B: 2

Try this:

A = 1; 
sprintf('% 8d',A)

B = 1234567; 
sprintf('% 8d',B)
