        Display graphics immediately

        This method attempts to display the graphics immediately,
        without waiting for the currently running code (if any) to
        return to the command line. Be careful, calling it from within
        a loop will potentially launch a large number of external
        viewer programs.

        INPUT:

           the plot

           * 'threejs': Web-based 3D viewer using JavaScript
             and a WebGL renderer

        -  ``verbosity`` -- display information about rendering
           the figure

        -  ``figsize`` -- (default: 5); x or pair [x,y] for
           numbers, e.g., [5,5]; controls the size of the output figure. E.g.,
           with Tachyon the number of pixels in each direction is 100 times
           figsize[0]. This is ignored for the jmol embedded renderer.

        -  ``aspect_ratio`` -- (default: "automatic") -- aspect
           ratio of the coordinate system itself. Give [1,1,1] to make spheres
           look round.

        -  ``frame_aspect_ratio`` -- (default: "automatic")
           aspect ratio of frame that contains the 3d scene.

        -  ``zoom`` -- (default: 1) how zoomed in

        -  ``frame`` -- (default: True) if True, draw a
           bounding frame with labels

        -  ``axes`` -- (default: False) if True, draw coordinate
           axes

        -  ``**kwds`` -- other options, which make sense for particular
           rendering engines

        OUTPUT:

        This method does not return anything. Use :meth:`save` if you
        want to save the figure as an image.

        CHANGING DEFAULTS: Defaults can be uniformly changed by importing a
        dictionary and changing it. For example, here we change the default
        so images display without a frame instead of with one::

            sage: from sage.plot.plot3d.base import SHOW_DEFAULTS
            sage: SHOW_DEFAULTS['frame'] = False

        This sphere will not have a frame around it::

            sage: sphere((0,0,0))
            Graphics3d Object

        We change the default back::

            sage: SHOW_DEFAULTS['frame'] = True

        Now this sphere is enclosed in a frame::

            sage: sphere((0,0,0))
            Graphics3d Object

        EXAMPLES: We illustrate use of the ``aspect_ratio`` option::

            sage: x, y = var('x,y')
            sage: p = plot3d(2*sin(x*y), (x, -pi, pi), (y, -pi, pi))
            sage: p.show(aspect_ratio=[1,1,1])

        This looks flattened, but filled with the plot::

            sage: p.show(frame_aspect_ratio=[1,1,1/16])

        This looks flattened, but the plot is square and smaller::

            sage: p.show(aspect_ratio=[1,1,1], frame_aspect_ratio=[1,1,1/8])

        This example shows indirectly that the defaults
        from :func:`~sage.plot.plot.plot` are dealt with properly::

            sage: plot(vector([1,2,3]))
            Graphics3d Object

        We use the 'canvas3d' backend from inside the notebook to get a view of
        the plot rendered inline using HTML canvas::

        Save the graphic in a file.

        The file type depends on the file extension you give in the

        - an image file (of type: PNG, BMP, GIF, PPM, or TIFF) rendered
          using Jmol (default) or Tachyon,

        - a Sage object file (of type ``.sobj``) that you can load back later
          (a pickle),

        - a data file (of type: X3D, STL, AMF, PLY) for export and use in
          other software.

        For data files, the support is only partial. For instance STL and
        AMF only works for triangulated surfaces. The prefered format is X3D.

        - ``filename`` -- string. Where to save the image or object.

        - ``**kwds`` -- When specifying an image file to be rendered by Tachyon
          or Jmol, any of the viewing options accepted by show() are valid as
          keyword arguments to this function and they will behave in the same

          ``figsize``, ``aspect_ratio``, ``frame_aspect_ratio``, ``zoom``,
          ``frame``, and ``axes``. Default values are provided.

        EXAMPLES::

            sage: G = sphere()
            sage: G.save(f)

        output image::

            sage: G.save(f, zoom=2, figsize=[5, 10])
