axes in jmol in the wrong place #3862

Open ef1c131e-1f03-4a63-96de-6d58a09f1051 opened 16 years ago

Example:

var('x')
var('y')
plot3d(cos(x) + sin(y), (x, -2,1), (y, -2,1), axes = True)

At least one axis is in the right location, the other two...

Translating coordinates into jmol seems to be difficult, so maybe this is the reason?

The fix is to put axes molecular in the jmol script. You can see the fix by right-clicking, selecting "console", and then entering the axes molecular command.

The attached patch makes the axes centered at the origin.

Assigning this to sage-3.3 will get mabshoff's attention, probably before he comes back on IRC :). Is this trivial enough to get in? It corrects a very annoying thing that bothers me when trying to teach calculus and graphing things in 3d.

Okay, never mind. Carl Witty pointed out that this ticket deals with the Sage axes, not the jmol axes. I'm posting this patch up at #5229 and retracting my claim of a fix here.
