| ================================== | |
| Move x-axis tick labels to the top | |
| ================================== | |
| `~.axes.Axes.tick_params` can be used to configure the ticks. *top* and | |
| *labeltop* control the visibility tick lines and labels at the top x-axis. | |
| To move x-axis ticks from bottom to top, we have to activate the top ticks | |
| and deactivate the bottom ticks:: | |
| ax.tick_params(top=True, labeltop=True, bottom=False, labelbottom=False) | |
| .. note:: | |
| If the change should be made for all future plots and not only the current | |
| Axes, you can adapt the respective config parameters | |
| - :rc:`xtick.top` | |
| - :rc:`xtick.labeltop` | |
| - :rc:`xtick.bottom` | |
| - :rc:`xtick.labelbottom` | |
