This morning, I also noticed that functions like "set_zticklabels()" did not exist. I currently have a patch submitted for that and it should be merged into the git repository tonight. In the meantime, you can always do something like: ax.w_zaxis.set_ticklabels() The functions like ax.set_zticks() merely call that function for the appropriate axis. Ben Root
