I want to make it so the labels are always in the same place relative to the boundaries (mostly the top). I am currently using yrange to set the boundaries, but IDL is optimizing the space somehow and the value i set isn't the top boundary of the plot. Is there a way to extract the top boundary, i.e. max Y value, of a plot?

Maybe al_legend is useful for what you are trying to do.
