    From Dieter Britz@21:1/5 to All on Tue Oct 29 09:30:50 2019
    I have this script:

    gnuplot << eoi
    set term postscript enh eps 24
    set output 'CDL1.eps'
    set title 'CD, L = 1'
    set xrange [0:1.0]
    set yrange [0:1.0]
    set xtics 0, 0.5, 1
    set ytics 0, 0.5, 1
    set xlabel "X"
    set ylabel "Y"
    set zlabel "cd"
    unset key
    splot 'data/CDsL1.dat' w l lt 1
    quit
    eoi

    The result is here: http://dieterbritz.dk/CDL1.pdf

    1. How do I move the x-axis labels (0, 0.5, 1) a bit
    lower down so that the 0.5 doesn't hit the base line?
    2. How do I lower the plot so that the zero level is right
    at the bottom?
    3 The orientation is not bad as is, but I tried to play with
    the angle of view, e.g. using
    splot 'data/CDsL1.dat' w l lt 1 rotate=pi
    and there was an error with rotate. How is that done?

    I found out how to lower the whole plot. But that, as you can see
    now (same link) wiped out the zero axis marker for Z. Why is this?
    And I still want to know how to shift the X-axis numbers so that
    they don't touch the grid line.

    Nobody needs a "work around" for that. See help xtics and use the
    "offset". It's simple.

    I tried that and the numbers got shifted left but still touching
    the grid line. No doubt I have misread the specs.

    I hate to admit my clumsy solution, but I asked for no xtics and placed
    the numbers "manually" with label ".." at ... Actually this had the
    advantage that it fixed the zero mark at the origin, so that it now
    refers to both X and Z axes, whereas before, gnuplot left out the zero
    for the Z axis, even though I specified 0, 10, 20 for that. So it's not
    totally crazy, I think. It did eliminate the tic mark at X = 0.5, but
    the plot is so dense there that I don't think that will be noticed.

    I'm not complaining, but I did all this because there seemed to be no
    response to my question for days. I understand that you are all busy.

    You can specify the offset for x y and z coordinates. For what do you
    specify the offset?

    The numbers under the x axis. Without an offset, they just touch the
    grid line at Y = 0.

    Yes, of course

    set xtics offset first 0,0,-5
    This place the tic labels from the x-axis in the negative z-direction.

    set xtics offset 0,-1
    This place the tic labels from the x-axis in the negative y-direction.
