Porting .ply files to Blender with colors?
by Jill P. Naiman Aug. 14, 2022

Aug. 14, 2022

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 April 11, 2020

April 11, 2020

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.

Problem about using yt to visualize simulation data
by Mu-Hung Chang Feb. 1, 2017

Feb. 1, 2017

Hi, I've encountered a problem when I tried to use yt to visualize simple 1D detonation simulation data generated by Castro. The figure I expected to get is a simple step function just as attachment "1d_detonation_expected.png". However, if I don't set a customized axis limit by hand, it will produce something weird at the origin, which can be seen in the attachment "1d_detonation_weird.png". Following is my simple script to make plots. I wonder where I did wrong thus make this happened. Thank you for answering. import sys import yt import yt.units as u def doit(plotfile): ds = yt.load(plotfile) ds.periodicity = (False, False, False) ad = ds.all_data() plot = yt.ProfilePlot(ad, "x", "temperature") plot.set_unit("temperature", "K") plot.set_unit("x", "m") plot.set_log('x', False) plot.set_xlim(1e-20, 450.0) pid = plotfile.split("plt")[1] plot.save("1d_detonation_{}.png".format(pid)) if __name__ == "__main__": # Choose a field plotfile = "" try: plotfile = sys.argv[1] except: sys.exit("ERROR: no plotfile specified") for plt in sys.argv[1:]: plotfile = plt doit(plotfile) Best, Mu-Hung

Code units have not been defined in Flash dataset
by Alex Hill Jan. 28, 2017

Jan. 28, 2017

Hi, I’ve encountered a new error when specifying a box using units other than code units. This is a Flash 4 plot file in cgs units. Example: import yt yt.__version__ ‘3.3.3’ d = yt.load('sn34_smd75_sub1_hdf5_plt_cnt_0030') b = d.box([-500,-500,-20]*yt.units.pc.in_cgs(),[500,500,20]*yt.units.pc.in_cgs()) fp = yt.PhasePlot(b,'n','pk',['cell_volume'],weight_field=None, fractional=True) I get the following error: UnitParseError: Code units have not been defined. Try creating the array or quantity using ds.arr or ds.quan instead. If I instead do b = d.box([-1.54e+21, -1.54e+21, -6.17e+19], [1.54e+21, 1.54e+21, 6.17e+19]) or left = d.domain_left_edge right = d.domain_right_edge left[2] = -6.17e19 right[2] = 6.17e19 b = d.box(left, right) I do not get any error. If I specify yt.units.cm, I do get the error. This was not an issue on the same data file a few months ago. I think I have updated yt in the meantime, but I’m not sure what the version was. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Here is the unit registry for my data set: reg = d.unit_registry for un in reg.keys(): if un.startswith('code_'): fmt_tup = (un, reg.lut[un][0], str(reg.lut[un][1])) print ("Unit name: {:<15}\nCGS conversion: {:<15}\nDimensions: {:<15}\n".format(*fmt_tup)) Unit name: code_magnetic CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: sqrt((mass))/(sqrt((length))*(time)) Unit name: code_time CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (time) Unit name: code_temperature CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (temperature) Unit name: code_pressure CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (mass)/((length)*(time)**2) Unit name: code_mass CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (mass) Unit name: code_velocity CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (length)/(time) Unit name: code_length CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (length) Unit name: code_density CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: (mass)/(length)**3 Unit name: code_metallicity CGS conversion: 1.0 Dimensions: 1 Cheers, Alex

Fwd: Visualization of 3D Cylindrical data set of FLASH

Dear yt users, I have a 3D cylindrical data set in FLASH. Has anyone tried visualizing them? I found ATHENA is supported but, I didn't find anything for FLASH. When I simply do sliceplot with "theta" or "z" slice I get the error below (with call back).

Volume render with two variables?
by Scott Feister Jan. 27, 2017

Jan. 27, 2017

Hi everyone, Is there a simple way to do a volume rendering of two variables simultaneously? For example, if I wanted to overplot both density and temperature into a single volume rendering. My naive method would be to define a new variable which is a weighted sum of the two variables, and sculpt the transfer function to have different colors over the range. I'm just asking if there's a better way built into YT. I've done a lot of searching through the documentation, but I can't find a clear answer as to whether this is a built-in feature. I've seen examples from a few years ago where both variables are rendered separately, and the PNG files are combined. This ends up with both variables being partially-transparent to the other variable; in my example, I'd prefer *not *to see through a particularly high-temperature region. I've also seen documentation on a "multi-variate transfer function", but that documentation is pretty incomplete. Thanks in advance!

Hi Nathan, Thanks for your response. I downgraded back to yt 3.2.3 so that I could get my work done, so I at the moment, I can't explore the grid hierarchy with yt 3.3.3. I'm happy to share my dataset with you. I'll upload it to the curldrop site.
