Hi Remy,
Sam or Matt may correct me here, but I don't think that the Camera
interface is currently capable of providing a backdrop like the one from
Matplotlib in that example. However, you *can* provide a bounding box for
your data, which gives it some context of 3-dimensional space:
http://yt-project.org/doc/cookbook/complex_plots.html#volume-rendering-with-...
There is currently development going on in yt 3.0 to enable a more
extensive camera interface which may allow for something like this, but it
will be a few more months before it's ready for use.
I hope this helps.

yt newbie here - nice software, thanks for all your hard work!
I really like the matplotlib 3d axis background, as e.g. http://yt-project.org/doc/cookbook/complex_plots.html#plotting-isocontours But I can't figure out how to get something remotely like that with a rendered camera snapshot.
Is this possible? Thanks. Remy _______________________________________________ yt-users mailing list yt-users@lists.spacepope.org http://lists.spacepope.org/listinfo.cgi/yt-users-spacepope.org
