[yt-users] setting limits on phase plots

[meecegre at msu.edu]

Hi Christine,
It looks like you're setting the limits using the exponent operator. I think what you want is

pc.set_zlim(1.0e-2, 1.0e5)
pc.set_xlim(1.0e-30, 5.0e-19)
pc.set_ylim(10.0, 1.0e7)

1.0e-2 is equivalent to 1.0 * 10^-2, which I think is what you're trying to do. Right now, yt is trying to set the zlim to be qual, and the min for the other two limits to be larger than the max, which could be causing it to go crazy.

Hope this helps!
