Adjusting the font for plot axis labels

Is it possible to modify the font that is used for the axis labels of plots?
I see that PlottingPanel view elements have a setFont method, so I tried the following lines of code:
Font f = new Font(Font.SERIF, Font.PLAIN, 30);
_view.plottingPanel.setFont(f);
However, this does not seem to do it.
Thanks!

Larry,
The first answer is no. The PlottingPanel class doesn't provide this possibility. At least yet.
But we are having a second look. Maybe it is not too difficult to add it.

Hi,
Because this solution was not satisfactory, we had to add a new feature.
The latest EJS releases, starting with EJS_4.3.5_120120, offer a new property for PlottingPanels called FontFactor. This factor multiplies the default font size of the axes labels to increase (factor > 1) or (decrease factor<1) the font displayed. Try 1.2 to increase, for instance. Do not use a 0 or negative factor!

I guess this will change some fonts in the panel, but not those of the axes labels...
I recommend using the new property for what Larry wants to do.
