Hello all,

i am working on a plot with 9 subplots.
I have 7 data points and i am replacing the XTickLabels 
(day of the year) by day/month (dd/mm format).
the problem is that a couple of measurements were done 
very close in time and their labels overlap.
I tried to adjust the size of the font, but i have to use 
6 or smaller if i do not want the labels to overlap. this 
text size is too small.

any suggestions?

PS: is it possible to write the tick labels in 2 rows so 
that i can alternate the text betwen the upper and the 
lower rows.
