I saw the examples and was aware this was possible, but I wasn't sure how it 
could be integrated with the graph. Since you're telling me that that 
basically can't be done, that's useful information. Maybe I could implement 
the doaxes method in minkowski, and there draw them manually. (Or I may just 
never get around to it at all; it's a low priority.)

I have encountered a different problem that I'm having trouble pinning down, 
though. When I set manual ticks (to remove those at the origin, for example) I 
get a ZeroDivisionErro in the rater. It seems that there is no weight. What I 
struggle to understand is why it works fine for ordinary PyX graphs, but not my 
minkowski class. Any ideas what might cause this, or where I should look?

Peace,
Brendon
