===============
Aligning Labels
===============

Aligning xlabel and ylabel using `.Figure.align_xlabels` and
`.Figure.align_ylabels`

`.Figure.align_labels` wraps these two functions.

Note that the xlabel "XLabel1 1" would normally be much closer to the
x-axis, and "YLabel1 0" would be much closer to the y-axis of their
respective axes.
