Porting .ply files to Blender with colors?
by Jill P. Naiman 15 Aug '22

15 Aug '22

Hi All, I was curious if anyone has had any luck porting .ply files generated with yt into Blender with colors? It seems to port in the surfaces just fine, but they are a uniform color. From what I can gather, Blender imports .ply files with face color instead of vertex so I tried the surf.export_ply routine with "face" instead of "vertex" for sample_type, but no luck ("vertex" doesn't work either). Let me know if I can provide any more useful info. Thanks for any help, -J

Stars on volume rendering

Hi all, Thanks for all your help over the last couple of days. One more question: - Can I plot particles on a volume rendered image? I have stars and I want to show where they are!

Variance in phase/profiles
by david collins 11 Apr '20

11 Apr '20

Hi, Everybody! Does anyone out there have a technique for getting the variance out of a profile object? A profile object is good at getting <X> vs. B, I'd then like to get < (X - <X>)^2 > vs B. Matt and I had spittballed the possibility some time ago, but I was wondering if anyone out there had successfully done it. Thanks, d. -- Sent from my computer.

quick question
by Daniel Whalen 26 Sep '14

26 Sep '14

I am trying to use yt to visualize 3D spherical coordinate data sets created with the ZEUS-MP code. I know yt can directly read in such data, but are there any issues when the grid is ratioed in the radial coordinate (ie, logarithmically spaced zones in radius). Thanks! Dan Whalen

Plotting 3D Data
by Owen McCrossan 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

Hello, I am trying to plot the density of a 3D simulation for only the first quadrant of a simulation. Since there is only one quadrant of data, I would like to eliminate the empty space and focus on only the data . I have gotten to a point where I have manipulated the graph to show only the data, but now the domain and range of the graph are wrong. Is there a way to set the x and y limits for a 3D plot? Thanks, -Owen

Plotting 1D data
by Hao Wang 22 Aug '14

22 Aug '14

Hi all, I'm trying to plot the density profile of a 1D simulation, but can't find any instruction on how to do this. I tried ray=pf.h.ortho_ray(0,[ord1,ord2]) with several different ord1 and ord2, including [0.5, 0.5]; while "ray['x']" returns an array of values, "ray[FieldName]" (where FieldName can be Density, TotalEnergy, GasEnergy, etc) returns nothing but "YTArray([],dtype=float 64) (dimensionless)". Using ortho_ray on the 2D simulation of the same problem gives correct answer. Also, the "all_data" and "sphere" object do not work for 1D (they work for 2D, too). Thanks, Hao

problems with star spectrum generator?
by Eric Hallman 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Hello again, I'm again running a very simple script from the cookbook, learning how to use the stellar spectrum generator. It's just a simple tests of spectrum generation with stars of all the same age and mass. It fails with a key error on the dataset, even thought it's not really using the dataset for anything but a reference time (I think). Since it's all small, I'll clip it in below. Here's the script itself: from yt.mods import * from yt.analysis_modules.star_analysis.api import * ds = load("RD0009") spec = SpectrumBuilder(ds, bcdir="/Users/hallman/work/data/sfData", model="chabrier") sm = np.ones(100) ct = np.zeros(100) spec.calculate_spectrum(star_mass=sm, star_creation_time=ct, star_metallicity_constant=0.02) spec.write_out(name="spec.out") And here is the output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "starSpec.py", line 13, in <module> spec.calculate_spectrum(star_mass=sm, star_creation_time=ct, star_metallicity_constant=0.02) File "/Users/hallman/work/yt-x86_64/src/yt-hg/yt/analysis_modules/star_analysis/sfr_spectrum.py", line 387, in calculate_spectrum dt = (self.time_now - self.star_creation_time * self._ds['Time']) / YEAR File "/Users/hallman/work/yt-x86_64/src/yt-hg/yt/data_objects/static_output.py", line 249, in __getitem__ return self.parameters[key] KeyError: 'Time' Even if I modify "sfr_spectrum.py" to use the key "current_time", it still fails with the same error. This is with yt-3.0, dataset created with the tip of enzo-dev as of about 20 minutes ago. It fails on older enzo datasets as well with the same error. Thanks for any help.

how to make a SlicePlot colorbar use mathtext?
by Michael Zingale 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

Does anyone know how to make a SlicePlot colorbar from yt use mathtext in the tick labels? I am doing the following in a loop over x, y, z planes: p = yt.SlicePlot(ds, d, var, center=(center[0], center[1], center[2]), origin="native", fontsize=10) p.set_log(var, log) plot = p.plots[var] plot.figure = fig plot.axes = grid[i].axes plot.cax = grid.cbar_axes[i] I can get at the colorbar object via cb = plot.cb, but I can't seem to turn on mathtext. I can modify the axes to use my formatter so they look pretty, but I've tried to set a colorbar formatter with no success. Here's my image: http://bender.astro.sunysb.edu/random/test.png Notice that the offset text for the colorbar is "1.e6" instead of in latex (I still have to remove the offset text for the two rightmost y-axes later, but I know how to do that).

Dear all, In one of my user defined field, I have to do a multiplication with Mach number. I found that, I can use both * data["Mach"]* and *data["MachNumber"]. *What is the difference between "Mach" and "MachNumber". Thank you -- Reju Sam John
