[jasongrout]

Notice that the frame axes are shown when using "show", but are missing when using "save"

Might be worth trying this again, now that #7981 has positive review. Would need a patch to document.

I can confirm that this works after #7981.

Changed work issues from check works, document with patch to none

This test checks that it works. Passes relevant test, plot looks good.
