Thank you. `? Axis` does provide a lot of info - now I am just confused why `help(Axis)` is not the same, but that’s another story…
The scene concept was one that I missed, it explains partly why I didn’t find what I was expecting to find in figure, they are in figure.scene.
I had seen the [thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/no-docs-for-figure-attributes-in-makie/66683) that you reference, but unfortunately most links in it are dead, except for the [issue](https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Makie.jl/issues/1241) which is still open.
On a side note, and in case this helps others exploring for attributes, typing `` in the REPL to get suggestions does help, but there is a strange bug (feature?) in the REPL that requires to type `` twice to see suggestions. So e.g. if you created a figure called fig, and then type `fig. `, you see nothing. But if you type a second ``, you see the suggestions and you can learn about attributes in fig. This partly explains why my attributes exploration was painful (I guess sometimes I was frustrated and was typing `` repeatedly, so I was seeing suggestions, but at other times when I was not frustrated enough I didn’t see the suggestions).
