Hello,  
does anyone knows a quick way to modified the ticks in 3D plot?  
the following options don’t seem to work.

```julia
axis = ax.scene[OldAxis]
axis[:xticks] = (-1:1:1, ["start", "middle", "end"])
axis[:ticks][:ranges_labels] = ...

```

yes… I was going trough the documentation and doing

```julia
xticks!(ax.scene; xtickrange = -1:1:1, xticklabels=["uno", "dos", "tes", "cua"])

```

works for me. Thanks!
