 > * in `.plot3d`, the plot was rotated uselessly (it was confusing)

 A precision about the `.plot3d` fix, the removal of these two lines:

 `911 P.aspect_ratio((1,1,1))`[[BR]]`912 P = P.rotateY(pi/2).rotateX(pi/2)`

 The first line doesn't change anything. The only way to control the aspect
 ratio of the rendered object in Jmol is to include it into a cube that
 contains everything, because Jmol will automatically take the smallest 3D
 rectangle that contains the object, and deform it to a cube (hence
 changing the aspect ratio). If a cube bounds everything, we get an actual
 aspect ratio of (1,1,1).

 The second line was initally written to "turn" the patch so that it faces
 the viewer when Jmol opens. The problem is that `rotate` does not change
 the point of view, but rotates the object itself, which is very confusing
 when we want to plot something else with the Patch (normal vectors or
 contracting planes, for example).
