Hi Kaitlin, One quick hint about using the IPython notebook is that if you put this line at the *very* top of your notebook, before you import from yt.mods, it will suppress some printing of progressbars and the like: from yt.config import ytcfg; ytcfg["yt","ipython_notebook"] = "True" As for the other item, I think it would be nice. Anthony has implemented a "save-or-show" command which may be relevant, but having pylab show up is not right now implemented. -Matt On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 2:33 PM, Nathan Goldbaum <nathan12343@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi Kaitlin,
Unfortunately we have yet to implement an interactive window to show() a plot from the command line. It's something I'd like to see - if there are any enterprising yt devs with some knowledge of matplotlib out there, I think adding such a capability would be a nice mini-project.
show() will work inside of an ipython notebook, so for now you can try doing it that way.
There's a little bit of detail about the notebook in the docs: http://yt-project.org/doc/interacting/ipython_notebook.html
Cheers,
Nathan

Hi all,
Very simple question. I have yt running on a mac with 10.8, which means it uses xquartz, not x11. When I open up ipython, I can make plots as usual using matplotlib, however if I try to make a slice plot with yt (or a line plot):
$ slc = SlicePlot(pf,'z','density') $ slc.show()
Nothing happens. Save works. Is there some display setting I can change?
Thanks, Kaitlin
