Changing matshow xticklabel position from top to bottom of the figure

Question

I'm using matshow() in matplotlib and the figures generated has the xticklabels on top by default. Is there a way to put the xticklabels on the bottom instead?

Appreciate any help with this. /M

Try doing the following to adjust the x ticks positions:

ax.xaxis.set_ticks_position('bottom')

Similarly, for the y ticks:

ax.yaxis.set_ticks_position('left')
