Hi all,

 

Do you know if there's a way of customising this 'little' detail. I have searched online with no luck. I tried exporting data to gnuplot separately but it's much harder to change font properties in gnuplot. So I wonder if any of you has done this before. To my eyes and many papers reviwers, the labels are placed a bit far from the axis which leads to a smaller graph for the same available area.

This should work with the FLTK backend (not sure about gnuplot backend):

h = get (gca, 'xlabel')

set (h, 'position', ...)
