Message-ID<lq7vam$340$2@dont-email.me>
I am plotting two 2D plots side by side with multiplot, and
the plots are too tall relative to the xy plane sides. I can't
find a way to scale the z-axis down a bit, in the manual. How
is it done?

4th parameter of "set view"

Thanks! I had tried the example in the manual but
overlooked that there are only two commas, meaning
the other scales, not for z.

I have another small problem with splot. The numbers
at the tics are too close to the x- and y-axes, touching
them. Can I get them at some distance from the axes,
without resorting to a lot of set label ".." at ... ?

set xtics offset ...

Thanks. It works for the x-axis, using

set xtics offset 0,-0.5

but not for the y axis. No doubt I am missing
something. The y-axis is labelled, in this 2D plot,
on the right hand side, and I want to shift the
numbers a bit to the right. What do I write to get
this? The manual is a bit cryptic here.

I mean 3D of course; there is a z-axis. But the labelling on
that is OK.

set xtics offset 0, -0.5   ## for the x tics
set ytics offset 0.5,  0   ## for the y tics
