Oh, thank you very much. The
gca().yaxis.set_label_coords(x, y)
command works fine for me :-)
But one qusetion. I think the user interface
ylabel('yLabel', xpos, ypos)
would be better. So I would do somethink like this in ylabel()
if xpos is not None:
self.set_label_coords(xpos, ypos)
What do you think?
Many thanks,
Friedrich
