Thanks Matt, but now I'm having new problems with 'ortho_ray', following (http://yt-project.org/doc/visualizing/manual_plotting.html), I tried

> ray = pf.h.ortho_ray(0, (0.0,0.0))

which then gave me

Without doing anything wrong, perhaps I'm just a bad influence.

Hi Luke,

You didn't do anything wrong.  :)  yt should be able to accept rays
through "ray" that are orthogonal to the axes, but it can't because of
some sloppiness.  You have two options -- either use "ortho_ray"
instead of "ray", which will make it orthogonal (and probably be a bit
faster) or add jitter to the tune of 1e-12 to your 0.0 entries.

Hello yt-users,

Just starting using YT, please forgive simple problems.

I have 1D spherical FLASH data which I'm trying to plot.  I thought I should use a 'ray', so I created one as such and try to access the data but I'm getting a ZeroDivision Error:

from yt.mods import *
pf = load('starwind_hdf5_plt_cnt_0000')
In [141]: ray = pf.h.ray([0.0,0.0,0.0],[1.0e11,0.0,0.0], fields=["Density"])

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
