It works perfectly, but the problem is that I have to add some lines in everycode I need this adjustment. I tried to include in my `maplotlibrc` file these two lines and it gives:\n\n```\nBad key \"ax.yaxis.labelpad\" on line 247 in\n...\\.matplotlib\\matplotlibrc.\nYou probably need to get an updated matplotlibrc file from\nhttp://matplotlib.sf.net/_static/matplotlibrc or from the matplotlib source\ndistribution\n```\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/saullocastro","@type":"Person","name":"saullocastro"},"datePublished":"2014-03-19T08:37:21.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":4},"url":"https://github.com/2907/matplotlib/issues/2907"}
