Worked first time!

To get it to work with log axes I replaced

lim(1)-offset*(lim(2)-lim(1))

with

10^(log10(lim(1))-offset*(log10(lim(2))-log10(lim(1))));

Thanks for the file!

But I found a small bug:
If I make my tick labels beforehand then use this version of the function:
format_tick(h,tickx,ticky,[],[],[],[],offset);
It re-assigns my tick labels to the default.

I did a quick-fix by copying the lines tickposx = get(h,'XTick'); and
'set(h,'XTickLabel',tickposx);' (located around line 134), and pasting them into the preceding if-statement. then I deleted the extra 'set(h,'XTickLabel',tickposx); '. However, beware! This fix may have introduced other errors that I haven't caught...
