Hello all,
Excuse me if this is a repost. I'm not sure if it made it through.
I want to supress the axes on a shade_surf plot. I see that I can use
[xyz]style = 4 to do this, but I am currently using [xyz]style = 1 to
force my axes to a certain start and stop value. So when I set
[xyz]style = 4, my axes' lengths revert to IDL's defaults which is
undesireable. Is my only option creating a new set of axes to match
the old axes from shade_surf with the AXIS procedure and set these
to the background color (which seems a pain) or is there something
simpler I am missing?

Uh, just for those of us who are a little confused by
computer jargon, "bitwise" means the values can be
added together. For example:
; To turn an axis off.
Plot, data, XStyle=4
; To make an axis an exact length.
Plot, data, XStyle=1
; To turn an axis off AND make it an exact length.
Plot, data, XStyle = 4 + 1
As the values are added together, certain bits get set.
These bits tell the program what to do. :-)
Now, back to your regularly scheduled program...
Cheers,
David

The [xyz]styles are bitwise. This ought to do what you're looking for.
