How to rotate 3d graph freely by x or y axis?

Hi,

I am trying to view some 3d geometric surface file. I found a problem that I can't rotate the graph total freely.

For example,

surf(peaks);
rotate3d on;

I can rotate the graph by the z axis freely. But when I want to rotate it by x, y or any other axis in the xy plane. The rotation must stop at 180 ° or -180 ° . I want to know the method to overcome this limitation in plotting the figure. Does some related function or parameters in Matlab useful? Thank you.

It is not interactive, however the rotate function should do what you want.
