It would be a lot easier to answer this question if you actually gave us a working piece of code that we could copy and evaluate. You give us no graphdata, and I suppose the responders could make some up but that all takes time. Then your code has some meaningless characters in it like in the MeshRange option. What are we supposed to fill in there? A completely working example will greatly increase the chances for a good response even though some of the people on MathGroup are pretty good at seeing through nonworking examples. David Park djmp at earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~djmp/ From: biomath2 [mailto:biomath2 at sbcglobal.net] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Dear all, I'm using Mathematica 4.0. I'm having trouble adding graphics primitives to my graphs. When I add axeslabels to a 3-D plot, a blank space after the label continues all the way to the right end of the graph, effectively overwriting everything in its path. Also, when I add text to a graph using the Text function, the same thing happens. For example, contour2 = ListContourPlot[graphdata, MeshRange -> {{0, αmax}, {0, βmax}}, Contours -> 2, ContourShading -> False, AxesLabel -> {"θx", "θy"}, Epilog -> Text[FontForm["3", {"Times- Italic", 9}], {0.3, 0.1}]] ; The text window for the number 3 extends all the way across the graph, blocking contours and the bounding box and all. Is there some way to specify that the text or label is only x characters long and therefore does not need so much space? And, in the above example, the AxesLabels do not show up...I see that this is an option for contour graphics in general, but I guess not for ListContourPlot in particular? thanks for any tips!
