Adjust figure position to a negative value

I use the following code to generate a figure

    f = figure;
    f.Position = [-0.4879    0.0333    0.4863    0.6111]

Then, I query the figure's position

    >> f.Position
        ans =
            0    0.0333    0.4863    0.6111

It ignores the negative x-value that would position the figure in my left monitor. I drag the figure to where I want it and query the position again

    >> f.Position
        ans =
           -0.4953    0.0333    0.4863    0.6111

Is there a way to generate the figue in the left monitor without dragging it over there?

Thanks Jan! I was really hoping to make the default position setting to be the left monitor. Right now, I've got something like

    set(0, 'defaultFigureUnits', 'normalized')
    set(0, 'defaultFigurePosition', [-0.4941    0.0312    0.4863    0.6111])

in startup.m. Any advice on how to do this with API?
