is it a bug?

In the following code, if view(2) or view(0,90) is defined before axis() which is not auto, then a default 3D figure will be plotted instead of flat 2D image. If view(2) or view(0,90) is defined after axis(), then it works. However, view(360,90) works before as well as after non-auto axis().
a=-1:0.1:1;
b=a;
[X,Y]=meshgrid(a,b);
Z=X.^2+Y.^2;
figure(1)
clf
surf(X,Y,Z),
%view(2), view(0,90) this does not work before axis() which is not auto
view(360,90), %this works before and after axis()
axis([X(1) X(end) Y(1) Y(end) min(min(Z)) max(max(Z))]),
%view(2), view(0,90) %this works after axis()
grid on

I have also experienced what you described. After investigation, even if it is not in the function documentation, the code of the function axis() resets the view of the plot to the default values. So no, it's not a bug, just an undocumented feature of the axis() function.
Therefore, I would recommend you to call axis() function before calling view().
