[yt-users] Colormaps

[Elizabeth Tasker]

Hey, this is awesome!

Could we add an example of how to specify a colormap for a slice? 

Is it: 

SlicePlot(pf, 2, "Density", plot_args=dict(cmap='Haze'))
 
or


SlicePlot(pf, 2, "Density", cmap='Haze')

or something for the whole script, like through map_to_colormap?

?

Did the descriptions of each function that show the available arguments get removed from the docs? It doesn't seem to come up when I search anymore.
