Labelling several axes with the same name

I have a figure with four subplots. I would like the x-axis to be labelled as "position" for all of them. How can I do this with one line of code?

Answer 1

Building on Jan's answer ...

H(1) = subplot(1,2,1);
H(2) = subplot(1,2,2);
Htemp = get(H, 'XLabel');
set([Htemp{:}], 'String', 'position');

I missed the 1 line of code...

Answer 2

[Jan]

H(1) = subplot(1,2,1);
H(2) = subplot(1,2,2);
set(get(H, 'XLabel'), 'String', 'position');

Does this work? I cannot test it currently.

No, get(H, 'XLabel') returns a cell array that set doesn't like. See my answer for one fix.
