Thanks anyway, but my plot is the same regardless of this trick (and the ribbon is still a surface). But in fooling with it, I discovered that my use of Translate may have been the thing messing the axes up. I cut out any translation in the z dimension, i.e. [.0001 .0001 0], and everything plots fine. Without Translate, the Ribbon line does not appear, (but the axes are OK !).

Its z-component is telling AutoAxes to do what you don't want. Try the following to remedy the situation: Ribbon | Remove(, "normals") | Mark (,"positions") | Compute ([a.x, a.y]) | Unmark | Sharon Gibson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>@opendx.watson.ibm.com on 10/23/2001 03:19:53 PM Please respond to [email protected] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] cc: Subject: [opendx-users] AutoAxes I am trying to display a colored field with 2-d positions in combination with a line created by the Ribbon macro, then framing the result using AutoAxes. AutoAxes works fine on just the field or just the line, but when I combine the two items the axis tick marks jump from primary x and y (left/bottom) axes to secondary x and y (right/top). Also, the axes labels are now covered up by the ticks. I see that the line (Ribbon) is really a surface, and although it displays OK, I'm wondering if that somehow messes up the axes ? --- End of forwarded mail from [email protected]
