Hi Aaron and Nathan, This worked great - thanks a lot! -desika On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 4:18 PM, Aaron Smith wrote:

Hi Desika,

I'll just add one thing. If you want to know the min and max values of the colorbar you can access the matplotlib values with:

temp_plot = slc.plots['temperature'] print '(vmin, vmax) =', (temp_plot.cb.norm.vmin, temp_plot.cb.norm.vmax)

Cheers, Aaron

Hi Desika

By default, slices of the temperature field are log-scaled. It looks like there is less than one order of magnitude in temperature variation, so no colorbar tick labels are showing up.

You will likely have better results if you switch to linear colorbar scaling:

slc.set_log('temperature', False)

If you switch to the latest dev version (what will be the upcoming yt 3.1 release) you should have minor tick marks on your plot.

Here's an example I just whipped up:

Hi All,

I have a slice plot that I make with the simple:

slc = SlicePlot(pf,'z',('gas','temperature')) slc.zoom(5) slc.save('junk2.png')

and produces this (it's super ugly but not the point :) ): http://i.imgur.com/j9H4imp.png

I can't figure out how to get the colorbar to reveal the numbers that the colors correspond to. Is there an obvious solution?
