python - Matplotlib - Move X-Axis label downwards, but not X-Axis Ticks

Question

I'm using Matplotlib to plot a histogram. Using tips from my previous question: Matplotlib - label each bin, I've more or less go the kinks worked out.

There's one final issue - previously - the x-axis label ("Time (in milliseconds)") was being rendered underneath the x-axis tickmarks (0.00, 0.04, 0.08, 0.12 etc.)

Using the advice from Joe Kingston (see question above), I tried using:

ax.tick_params(axis='x', pad=30)

However, this moves both the x-axis tickmarks (0.00, 0.04, 0.08, 0.12 etc.), as well as the x-axis label ("Time (in milliseconds)"):

Is there any way to move only the x-axis label to underneath the three rows of figures?

Answer 1

use labelpad parameter:

pl.xlabel("...", labelpad=20)

or set it after:

ax.xaxis.labelpad = 20
