Colorbar offsetText (scientific base multiplier) move from top to bottom of colorbar

Question

I\'m losing my wits here with this \'simple\' problem:

In the colorbar (illustrated in picture) in matplotlib I need to move offsetText (base multiplier) from top of

Answer 1

Hmmm... Apparently, it's not possible to move colorbar's scientific base multiplier up or down, just slightly left or right.

Workaround would be to hide it and just add (same) custom text that would be positioned at the bottom (in my case):

    cb.ax.yaxis.get_offset_text().set_visible(False)
    cb.ax.text(0.5, -0.1, '1e4', va='bottom', ha='center', size=6)

If someone has more elegant solution, I would be happy to see it!
