is an option for AxisObject that specifies how the tick labels should be positioned relative to the ticks.

  • TickLabelPositioning{spec1,…,specn} uses the specification speci for the i^(th) collection of ticks.
  • Possible settings for speci are:
  • "Base"at the base of the tick where it meets the axis
    "Tip"at the tip of the tick
    Beforeend of the label before the tick
    Afterstart of the label after the tick
  • By default, tick labels are positioned on the opposite side of the axis from the tick.
