Ben:

Here's a snippet from my application that constructs 3D axes like you want.

Scott

......... begin code snippet .............

  actorAxes = vtkActor::New();

  float scaleFactor = 2.0*maxDim;

  // create axes
  axes->SetOrigin(0,0,0);
  axes->SetScaleFactor(scaleFactor);
  polyMapAxes->SetInput(axes->GetOutput());
  actorAxes->SetMapper(polyMapAxes);
  actorAxes->PickableOff();

  ren1->AddActor(actorAxes);
