Try increasing the tick.major.pad in your rc settings

Much obliged, Darren, that was just what I needed. Another small imposition,
if I may: I'm using twinx() to get a second y-axis for a plot. It works
fine, except that the tick marks from the first axis are also present on the
right-hand side, causing a bit of a mess. Is there a way to suppress
printing the tick marks just for the right plot side? All the reading I've
done leads me to believe that this is an all-or-nothing affair, as I can
only suppress tick marks by setting yticks to the empty set, and this of
course removes all the tick marks on that axis. Am I missing something
obvious here? I noticed that the two_scales.py demo exhibits the same
behaviour (juxtaposing the two sets of ticks on the right side).

Cheers and thanks,

Mike Sipior

try this:

plot([1,2,3,4])
gca().yaxis.tick_left()
twinx()
plot([11,12,13,14])
