The default in R is to create axes outside the range of your data, and
that's what djmrgl and scatterplot3d do. In djmrgl you can control
the placement of the axes if you really want them in the middle of
your data, but why would you want that??
See the example in ?axis3d for details.>

I don't know a package that does that, but there probably is one.
