This behavior is causing a problem for me. I have two figures with different sets of yticklabels (100 vs 1000), and the ylabels are in different places as a result. I'd like to have the two ylabels be in the exact same position. > To increase the distance, you can increase the LABELPAD parameter > > ax.xaxis.LABELPAD = 8 # default is 5 I am changing this property, but nothing changes on the figure. From ipython, and when the figure is visible, I type: gca().yaxis.labelpad = 100 but the ylabel doesn't move. I'm in 0.98pre from svn.
