Hi All, I recently moved to working on a new machine and I've run into problems with eps_writer and pyx and tex. It seems pyx and tex are not talking to one another. I know pyx can sometimes have an iffy relationship with tex but does anyone know how to make them like each other? This is the output I get. yt : [INFO ] 2015-11-25 14:51:23,198 xlim = 0.456408 0.541884 yt : [INFO ] 2015-11-25 14:51:23,198 ylim = 0.482775 0.568251 yt : [INFO ] 2015-11-25 14:51:23,200 Making a fixed resolution buffer of (('gas', 'H_number_density')) 800 by 800 Create Multiplot.... yt : [WARNING ] 2015-11-25 14:51:24,085 No field specified.
