moving axes around in 3D plots [message #3730]

I want to plot some surfaces from various angles but still have the axes be
visible. The IDL manual suggests using reverse to move the surface viewing
angle without altering the axes (usually by reversing the direction of one
or more axes), but I prefer to rotate the image to the desired angle and
then change the position of the axes without changing the directions of the
axes. How do I do this?

Ex: Change (A) to (B) by moving the y and z axes to the other side of
the x.
(A) (B)

|z |z

/y x \ /y
