15.59.5 X|Y|Z

This specifies the axis to project along. If you specify v then only the row/column corresponding to v is projected. If specified v1 and v2 may select a range of values to project. If no values are specified then the entire mesh is projected. If BY=v3 is specified then a series of projections are made from v1 to v2 with a width of v3. If N=n is specified then the range from v1 to v2 is split into n equal intervals. You need not use this command if you wish to histogram only a single slice. The SLICE modifier on the HISTOGRAM, or JOIN commands may be used. If X,Y, or Z are repeated then extra data sets are defined with projections.
