Hi, this is my first post so let me know (gently
if I'm not doing this quite right.
I'm using Mathematica 8.0.0.0 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 PC, experienced with both Mathematica and Linux but not the combination.
When I invoke Plot3D or ListPlot3D and use AxesLabel, the first character of each label is cut off. So if I run
ListPlot[{{0, 0}, {0, 1}, {1, 0}, {1, 1}}, AxesLabel -> {x1, "x2"}]
everything's fine (labels are x1 and x2), but if I run
ListPlot[{{0, 0, 0}, {0, 1, 1}, {1, 0, 1}, {1, 1, 0}}, AxesLabel -> {x1, "x2", 33}]
the labels are 1, 2, and 3. If I run
Plot3D[Sin[x*y], {x, 0, 1}, {y, 0, 1}, AxesLabel -> Automatic]
I get no axes labels at all.
I tried searching for this issue but can't find anything. Has anyone seen this before? The workaround is obvious (though I discovered that prepending a space character does no good), but it would be nice to actually fix.
P.S. Forgot to mention--the numbers which label the ticks also have their first characters cut off! So if the tick labels would normally be 0.0, 0.5, and 1.0, I only see .0, .5, and .0 again.
