Hi yt users
I am using yt to create data objects to sample properties in a RAMSES simulation at different locations. I want to create a cuboid data object with x and y width of 0.2 and a z width of 0.4. I have been using the following commands to create the object:
left = [0.4,0.4,0.3] cen = [0.5,0.5,0.5] right = [0.6,0.6,0.7] box = pf.h.region(cen, left, right)
My Question is will this create a data object of the shape that I want or will it create something else? Is there a way to see the shape of the data object?
Thanks in advance for the help

As a general Python piece of advice, if you type "help(box)" after those lines it'll give you the class interface of the box object and its docstrings.

Hi Kearn,
If you want to physically see the shape of the object you are creating, you can provide it as a data source to a project. For example, take your region and do: plot = ProjectionPlot(pf, "x", "Density", data_source=box) plot.save()
