Hi Luke,

Axis properties are now controlled by the class AxisScale (s. below).

Do instead:

scale = map.getAxisScale();  // where map is a ScalarMap to X-, Y- or
ZAxis

scale.setTitle("My favourite Quantity [J/m³]");  // don't know if "³"
will draw OK

With AxisScale you can also set the font type and size, minor and major
ticks, set axis color, and many more.
Please refer to the Javadoc for more information.

Cheers,

Ugo
