# PetscDrawAxisCreate
Generate the axis data structure. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdraw.h"  
PetscErrorCode PetscDrawAxisCreate(PetscDraw draw, PetscDrawAxis *axis)
```
Collective on draw


## Input Parameters

- ***win -*** `PetscDraw` object where axis to to be made



## Output Parameter

- ***axis -*** the axis datastructure



## Note
The MPI communicator that owns the underlying draw object owns the `PetscDrawAxis` object, but calls to set `PetscDrawAxis` options are
ignored by all processes except the first MPI rank in the communicator
