Thanks Matt. Not sure where in the docs something like that might go, but if it's in there, I completely missed it. Jon On Fri, Dec 8, 2017 at 2:10 PM, <yt-users-request@lists.spacepope.org> wrote:

Hi Jon,
You can see all of these in under ds.parameters, which is populated from all the non-field values.

Hi,
I would like to get the value of the timestep from my FLASH data read in by yt. In HDFView I can see the value of 'dt' under 'real scalars'. Using yt to read in the data, though I don't see any way to access it, if it is contained in the ds. The field list just shows the grid variables. I can get the absolute time via ds.current_time. There are a number of different items at the top level in HDFView, e.g. bflags, block size, sim info, that are not available, as far as I can tell, from the ds object. Am I missing something? Is there any way to get yt to read in specific variables like dr (under "real scalars")?
Thanks, Jon
