One thing I've failed to find in all the interactivity of function graphics is how to change the scale limits of an axis without re-plotting or simply reissuing an axis.xrange=[0,10] command. Can the axis limits not be changed using the property menus for a function graphic?
Also,how come you can't dynamically change an axis from linear to logarothmic using the function graphics property menus?

I don't object to making the property sheets complete. I'm just saying
that if time and resources are constrained, there are probably one or
two things I could think of off the top of my head that might have a
higher priority than this. :-)

I do wonder, though, how many people decide AFTER they create a plot
that they want a log axis. And, what percentage of those would go though
some interactive rigamarole instead of just hitting the UP arrow on the
keyboard and adding a "/YLOG" to the previous command.
Sounds like a feature without a big audience to me. :-)
Cheers,
David
