Hi,
a) what's wrong with Ticks -> {{0, Pi/2, Pi, (3*Pi)/2, 2*Pi},Automatic}
b) I don't think that there is a version 6. of Mathematica and
*if* anyone has seen that version he had to sign a
non disclosure agreement that he will not talk about it
and not post any information about it into news groups.
Regards
Jens
