Problem with 3D axis

[Rafaelmx]

Consider the following document:

\documentclass{article}
\listfiles
\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}
\begin{center}
  \begin{tikzpicture}[y={(0,0,1)},z={(0,1,0)}]
    \draw[very thick,red] (0,0,0) -- (1,0,0);
    \draw[very thick,blue] (0,0,0) -- (0,2,0);
    \draw[very thick,brown] (0,0,0) -- (0,0,1);
  \end{tikzpicture}
\end{center}

\end{document}

The idea of the [y={(0,0,1)},z={(0,1,0)}] part was to "interchange" the
default y with the default z-axis. However, the blue and the brown lines
both point to the same direction. I was expecting the brown line to go
up, i.e. in the direction of the default y-axis. This was with a CVS
build from http://www.texample.net/tikz/builds/. File list is as
follows. Thanks in advance.

Hi Rafael

Perhaps something like that

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{tikz}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}[scale=1.5,line width=1pt]

\pgfsetxvec{\pgfpoint{-0.5cm}{-0.5cm}}
\pgfsetyvec{\pgfpoint{1cm}{0cm}}
\pgfsetzvec{\pgfpoint{0cm}{1cm}}
   \draw[very thick,red] (0,0,0) -- (1,0,0);
   \draw[very thick,blue] (0,0,0) -- (0,1,0);
   \draw[very thick,brown] (0,0,0) -- (0,0,1);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}

Best Regards

Alain
