Axis labels cover the figure

Hi there,

While making my figure, I noticed how the Yaxis labels cover part of the figure. How do I fix this?

f1=figure;
    p = plot(xArray,normalizedSum);
        p.LineWidth = 1.2;
        p.Color = [175 0 50]./255;
    set(gca,...
        'FontSize', 12,...
        'XDir','reverse',...
        'YMinorTick','on',...
        'YScale','log',...
        'YTickLabelMode', 'manual',...
        'YGrid','on',...
        'YMinorGrid','on',...
        'YMinorTick','on',...
        'YTick',[1 10 100 200 255],...
        'YTickLabel',{'1','10','100','200','255'});
    xlim([0 12]);
    ylim([0 255]);
    ylabel('Logarithmic pixel intensity');
    xlabel(['Distance (' char(197) ')']);

Thanks in advance.

This is a bug that has since been fixed. See semilogx() with reverse X Axis changes Y Labels position for a work-around, or update your version to the latest update (that may have fixed it), or upgrade to the current version/release or a version after R2018b (that may have been the last version with this bug).

And thus comes the moment I have been postponing for quite some time, i.e. updating the software. Thanks for your anwser. After the installation, I can accept your answer, but I have no doubt it is correct.

Works perfectly in R2020b. Thanks @Star Strider.
