[Users] hiding the printExtent

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi,

I'd say tearDown() is the right thing to do. I would propose to change two method names as part of our API review before the 1.0 release:

setUp -> show
tearDown -> hide

Marc, if you agree, can you please create a ticket for this change?

Thanks,
Andreas.
