Okay, sorry for my poor phrasing.
Simply put: I would like to display a coordinate system with its
origin outside the visible window when using negative values in the
position vector.
For example:

IDL> window, /free
IDL> x=findgen(200)*0.1
IDL> plot, x, cos(x), /device, position=[-90,-90,200,200]

When I type this I would like the lower and left axes not to be
displayed in the window and the tickmarks to be accordingly shifted
for the other 2 axes. However it seems that no matter what negative
value I type in, the axes still appear at the bottom and to the left
of the window.

Thanks for your help.
