[yt-users] data_source with SlicePlot

[Matthew Turk]

Hi Elizabeth,

Yup, it takes a slice - however it was created - and makes it into a plot
window. So the idea is you create the underlying object and then you can
get the plot window (rather than the FRB) and make the font adjustments and
so on to that. Not all of the constructor arguments are exposed in to_pw
but all of them can be set on the resultant object.

One design choice made with the plot window was to avoid over-reaching -
rather than make the constructor over complicated, we try to make it easy
to make a plot window a different way.
