[yt-users] How ot overplot star particles on density projections

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Hi Latif,

Yes, although you'll have to do it manually.  Take a look at the
ParticleCallback in yt/visualization/plot_modifications.py, which does this
work for single panel plots.  You'll have to be careful if any of your
particles are effected by periodic boundary conditions.
