Summary0012328: 'Show grid lines' for axes display draws lines outside bounding box on two axes
DescriptionWhen you display the cube axis, and then go to the Edit Cube Axes Properties box, and turn on Show Grid Lines, the behavior is incorrect. For the X-Axis it seems to be okay. However, for the Y and Z Axes, the grid lines are drawn much beyond the range of the bounding box described by the cube axes lines.

To demonstrate, simply start up paraview, create a cone source, turn on Show Cube Axes (in the Annotation section of the Display tab), hit the Edit button to bring up Edit Cube Axes Properties, go to the Y-Axis tab, select the Show Grid Lines check box, and hit okay. Same problem for the Z-Axis. okay for X-Axis.

I suspect the error is connected with the following code in vtkCubeAxesActor.cxx in the method vtkCubeAxesActor::ComputeTickSize

  double xExt = 20; //bounds[1] - bounds[0];
  double yExt = bounds[3] - bounds[2];
  double zExt = bounds[5] - bounds[4];

although I haven't yet tried changing, I'm wondering why xExt is arbitrarily set to 20 rather than using the bounds.

This also, I think affects the tick mark length in a bad way.

I'm attaching state file.
