Matplotlib tries to set the vertical position automatically based on how tall the tick labels are - see how e.g. the commands setp(getp(gca(), 'xticklabels'), fontsize=2) setp(getp(gca(), 'xticklabels'), fontsize=10) setp(getp(gca(), 'xticklabels'), fontsize=20) affect the position. If you're not happy with that, I think your best bet is to use figtext instead of xlabel, and perhaps file a bug in the matplotlib tracker, explaining how the current positioning is insufficient for your needs. -- Jouni K.
