To change the separation between tick labels and axis labels in Matplotlib, we can use labelpad in xlabel() method.
Steps
- Set the figure size and adjust the padding between and around the subplots.
- Plot data points of a list using plot() method.
- Set the ticks on the axes.
- Set X and Y axes margins to 0.
- Set the X-axis label with labelpad.
- To display the figure, use show() method.
Example
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
plt.rcParams["figure.figsize"] = [7.50, 3.50]
plt.rcParams["figure.autolayout"] = True
plt.plot([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
plt.xticks([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
plt.margins(x=0, y=0)
plt.xlabel("X-axis", labelpad=7)
plt.show()Output
