\hspace before \section and \subsection

Question

How to place \hspace{} before \section{} and \subsection{}? I am using an \documentclass[12pt, a4paper]{article}. I want make custom command for \section{} and \subsection{} with different \hspace value. How to do it? Help!

@DavidCarlisle Its if from package mystyle. I just shown it because its been in famous ansver to my question already but it does not suit me. — Vladyslav Rehan, Nov 05 '22 at 18:50
that is using koma but you said you are using article, you have not shown mystyle and you did not reference the previous answer in your question. You should really define any commands you show being used. Preferably by making the example a complete test document — David Carlisle, Nov 05 '22 at 18:55
@DavidCarlisle Damn i really messed up everything, its realy not from mystyle, thanks for note. — Vladyslav Rehan, Nov 05 '22 at 18:59
you can still edit the question to make it more understandable — David Carlisle, Nov 05 '22 at 19:01

It is very hard to understand the question, which just has a fragment of code using an unshown package, and an undefined command, and nothing else. however I think you want this which just adds \hspace*{} to a copy of \section from article.cls

\documentclass{article}
\makeatletter
\newcommand\sectionx[1]{@startsection {section}{1}{\z@}%
                                   {-3.5ex @plus -1ex @minus -.2ex}%
                                   {2.3ex @plus.2ex}%
                                   {\hspace*{#1}\normalfont\Large\bfseries}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\section{A section}
aaa
\sectionx{1cm}{Another section}
aaa
\sectionx{.5cm}{Yet another section}
aaa
\section{A final section}
aaa
\end{document}

Exactly what I need! Thank You a lot! – Vladyslav Rehan Nov 05 '22 at 19:37 — Vladyslav Rehan, Nov 05 '22 at 19:37
