matplotlib set_label_position no effect in 3d?

I am trying to move the position of the label of the axis in 3d view in matplotlib. I have tried ax.xaxis.set_label_position and ax.xaxis.set_label_coords. Both seem to have no effect. enter image description here

I'd like to move t/T_L away from the label ticks. How is it done?

Label padding in 3D plots does not work the same way as for 2D plots.

As shown in this answer, you can set the labelpad using ax.xaxis._axinfo['label']['space_factor']. Its not particularly pretty, but it works.

ax.xaxis._axinfo['label']['space_factor'] = 2.8
