SUMMARY

Axis title can be displaced only between -99.99pt and 99.99pt. This is not enough in some situations. For instance, if you have x-axis centered and you want the axis title label to be placed over the axis at the right-end. Probably a 100pt displacement will not be enough to move the label to the desired position.

In this case, a workaround is possible (adding spaces in front of the label), but this doesn't work with y-axis labels if you want the label rotated 0 degrees (upright).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
information in the summary should be enough to reproduce.

OBSERVED RESULT
Axis title labels can only be shifted 100 points to the right or left.

EXPECTED RESULT
Be able to place the axis labels anywhere on the plot. At least, the label position should be selectable roughly (axis start, center, end) and then fine-grained adjusted with the displacement setting.
