I believe the OP was asking how to position the entire figure Window (or 
frame in wx parlance) on the screen, rather than the axis within the figure.

If you are using the wx back-end, you should be able to get a reference 
to the wx.Frame, and do what you like with it. (sorry, I don't remember 
how to do that off the top of my head, though if need be a few calls to 
GetParent should get you there).

If you are using another back-end there should be a similar calls available.

However, given your description, I suspect that you'd be better off 
managing the frames with your code anyway. Take a look at wxMPL 
(http://agni.phys.iit.edu/~kmcivor/wxmpl/) and/or the "embedded_in_wx" 
examples.
