Yes, yes, I am aware of this feature mentioned in the documentation,
nevertheless I actually hoped that the axes could be hidden by the object
being plotted.
It is probably not common in scientific use but it could look pretty just
for visualisation needs.
For example, I have tried to produce following figure using gnuplot:
http://www.nabble.com/file/p23659362/img.gif
The sphere could be coloured using pm3d and the axes are shown just for
comparison and demonstration of the corresponding dimensions.
So, I suppose according to your reply that there is no way how to achieve it
automatically? I mean without the need to e.g. simulate the axes by "set
arrow" command and place the labels and {x|y|z}tics by hand...
