If you want full control of label coordinates, you need to use "Axis.set_label_coords" method. For example,
ax = gca() ax.xaxis.set_label_coords(0.5, -0.1) And alternative way is to adjust the padding between the axis and the label. ax.xaxis.labelpad = 0 Regards, -JJ On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 3:27 AM, andes <czuni...@yahoo.com> wrote: > x = linspace(0,1,10) > y = x**2 > plot(x, y) > xlabel('xname', position=(0.5,0.1)) #<------ > ylabel('yname', position=(0.1,0.5)) #<------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enable your software for Intel(R) Active Management Technology to meet the growing manageability and security demands of your customers.
