MATLAB: How to arrange the ylabels using subplot and plotyy such that they do not overlap

MATLABplotyysubplotylabel

Hi all:
When I combine the plotyy and subplot command the ylabels overlap:
figure
for i = 1:2
subplot(1,2,i);
ax = plotyy(1:10,randn(10,2),1:10,randn(10,2));
set(get(ax(1),'Ylabel'),'String','label1')
set(get(ax(2),'Ylabel'),'String','label2')
end
Does anybody have an idea how to resolve this issue?
Best, Peter

You may want to move your current subplot to the right
pos = get(gca, 'Position');
pos(1) = pos(1) + 0.05;
set(gca, 'Position', pos)
