took a couples weeks of hacking to get what I wanted in a 3d plot, could 
the third plot settings be considered as default? the third plot seems 
"smaller" than the others, shouldn't there be a default "size" setting 
too? any help on the size or otherwise appreciated. Would really like to 
use "with surface" and get a transparent surface I can plot within

No.  It's an error to assume that all plots will have the same layout 
requirements as yours.

There is.  The default is "1".

Only if the plot, like yours, displays the same quantity on all axes,
e.g. some geometric entity.

I all other cases, that would make no sense at all, and require the user
to manually re-scale the axes for each plot.

thanks, should have thought there might be reason, I did qualify my post 
as coming from a beginner :)

I'll look up what the defaults exactly are before complaining again
