Description D. V. Wiebe 2008-09-19 20:28:48 UTC 
Version:           1.7.0 (using KDE 3.5.10)
Compiler:          gcc (GCC) 4.2.3  
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

In certain instances, when the actual numerical value of data in one axis or the other is unimportant, it would be nice to have an option (perhaps as part of the "inside/outside/inside+outside" radio buttons) which completely suppresses drawing the axes ticks and numerical labels.  This is different than the "suppress border and label" options, since this would still draw the axis label.

I can currently hack this by:
1) Placing tick marks outside the plot
2) suppressing the appropriate border and label
3) Placing a text label with the axis label outside the plot area

This hack suffers from layout issues (centering the label, getting the label size right, &c.).
