Thanks.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’ve always found pixel layout to be much cleaner than percent layouts, but then I’m used to designing web interfaces with a bunch of objects that need to play together nicely when you resize the window, so this is a significantly different application. That said, I was thinking along the lines of setting the border for the figure, not individual axis, but perhaps that’s not how it works?</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class=""><div class="">
