问题:

I find this a bit annoying.

I make a 3D plot, initially it come up in the default orientation. Then, using the mouse, I rotate it some way.

Now I run the command again, expecting to obtain the original shape (i.e the original orientation before I rotated it by mouse), but instead, it just gives me the same plot I have on the screen, i.e. it seems to have kept/remembered the last viewpoint in that output cell.

I wanted it to go back to the original viewpoint. So, I delete the output cell to make it happen.

Do you think this is how it is supposed to work? Having to keep deleting the cell output is annoying when I am trying thing. I think it should go back to original default orientation.

  Graphics3D[ Cuboid[{-.1,-.1,-.1},{.1,.1,.1}],         AxesOrigin->{0,0,0},         PlotRange->{{-1,1},{-1,1},{-1,1}},         Axes->True,         AxesLabel->{"X","Y","Z"},         Ticks->None]

If you run the above, then move the plot, then run the command again, you'll see what I mean.

version 8.0.01

EDIT:

More strange: I added viewpoint option to force it to the default view point, yet, the same result. It remember the last viewpoint. This below is the default viewpoint, from help.

 Graphics3D[ Cuboid[{-.1,-.1,-.1},{.1,.1,.1}],         AxesOrigin->{0,0,0},         PlotRange->{{-1,1},{-1,1},{-1,1}},         Axes->True,         AxesLabel->{"X","Y","Z"},         ViewPoint->{1.3,-2.4,2},         Ticks->None]

I find this strange.

Try:

With PreserveImageOptions->False, settings for image options from the previous version of a graphic are always ignored.

In a Mathematica notebook, render your plot, then orient it the way you like.

Then place the cursor on the left of the PLOT OUTPUT, and type "AbsoluteOptions[" Then place the cursor on the right of the PLOT OUTPUT, and type "]" Shift-Enter

You will get a bunch of information. Look for ViewPoint and then use this as an option in your graphics. Then, you will always get the same orientation.
