I am trying to adjust the location of the contour labels. I would like them to be on the left side, as the right side is the more important side to see without distractions. I would like to find a solution besides the clabel 'manual' option as I'll be making several figures like this in a loop (also, for some reason when I use the manual option, the label selection figure is blank so it is a challenge to select the contour lines). I am using MATLAB 2020a. Thank you!
contourf(T,H,P,40,'edgecolor','none');
C=caxis;
caxis([C(1),C(2)]);
col = cmocean('matter',n_elem);
colormap(col);
cb = colorbar;
hold on
[c,h]=contour(T,H,D,10,'w');
h.LevelList=round(h.LevelList,1);
clabel(c,h,'LabelSpacing',1500,'FontSize',13,'color','white');
axis ij
h.LineWidth = 1.25;
set(gca,'XDir','reverse');

I've used the FEX function gclabel in the past to do this sort of thing, though I haven't tested it in any recent versions of Matlab. Unfortunately, Matlab's built-in contour labeling is pretty limited.
