[yt-users] set_xlim() and set_ylim() problem

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Hi Noel,

I would create the ray object and plot by hand, rather than relying on
PlotCollection:

pf = load(...)
ray = pf.h.ray([0.0, 5.0e9, 5.0e9],[1.e10, 5.0e9, 5.0e9])

data = ray['logden']
t = ray['t']

import pylab
pylab.plot(t, data)

Of course you'll need to set your own axes labels this way but it should be
a lot more flexible.

-Nathan
