The color_map is an entirely different thing from the coordinate axes. 
It's merely a one-dimensional *DEFINITION* of the color data.  You seem 
to be trying to 'force' this color definition dirctly onto the 
coordinate dimensions, but it's really a totally different thing.

Scaling, however, IS directly related to the coordinate dimensions, and 
as Alain pointed out, the scaling can be different along all three axes.
