[yt-users] "Partial" Projection

[Christine Simpson]

Hi Munier,

I believe you get a french fry (it sums along the entire line of sight through the box).  This very much confused me for a while too.  To control the depth of the projection, use a thin projection in yt (add_thin_projection) that you give a depth.  I think there are docs on this, but if not I can show you an example.

By default, when you hand YT a width, does it use that width to restrict the depth of the projection (i.e. limits the entire analysis to a cube?) or does it sum along the entire line-of-sight through the whole simulation box (a french fry?). If the latter is the default, is there a way to override this?
