Thank You, but now I have another little annoying issue. Besides clabel I add some text manually to my plot with plt.text and sometimes the clabel and plt.text overlap, and no matter in which order I plot them, the string from clabel is always above the one from plt.text, but I would like, if the manually added text would be more visible.
So, is there a way to prevent the clabel text from appearing above other text in my plot? I can make a little workaround by getting clabel coordinates and then trying to guess if they overlap with my text and then set the particular clabel invisible. But at the moment it seems I need to do additional calculations to get the actual size of text boxes and maybe there is a more elegant solution, still?
