Hello -- sometimes when I plot a function Mathematica decides to put
the origin of the coordinate system in a spot where I don't want it.
The natural fix seems to be the option AxesOrigin. For instance,
Plot[ugly[x],{x,a,b},AxesOrigin->{0,0}]
Simple enough. However, there are times when Mathematica appears to be
trying to place the origin of the coordinate system where I want it,
but it doesn't print out the axis lines near the region of my origin of
choice. It's as if it recognizes where I want the origin, but it
doesn't want to print out the axes in the normal manner.
It's hard to explain in words...here's a graphical illustration
Unwanted Origin = {1,1} (Mathematica's initial choice):
|
|
|
|
|__________
(1,1)
When I use AxesOrigin->{0,0}
|
|
|
|
__________
(0,0)
Note how Mathematica curiously omits segments of the axis lines near the
origin of my choice.
Has anyone else out there experienced this? How may I remedy it?
Thanks a million,
AC
