[yt-users] how to make a SlicePlot colorbar use mathtext?

[Michael Zingale]

Does anyone know how to make a SlicePlot colorbar from yt use mathtext in
the tick labels?  I am doing the following in a loop over x, y, z planes:


        p = yt.SlicePlot(ds, d, var, center=(center[0], center[1],
center[2]),
                         origin="native", fontsize=10)
        p.set_log(var, log)

        plot = p.plots[var]
        plot.figure = fig
        plot.axes = grid[i].axes
        plot.cax = grid.cbar_axes[i]

I can get at the colorbar object via cb = plot.cb, but I can't seem to turn
on mathtext.  I can modify the axes to use my formatter so they look
pretty, but I've tried to set a colorbar formatter with no success.

Here's my image:

Notice that the offset text for the colorbar is "1.e6" instead of in latex
(I still have to remove the offset text for the two rightmost y-axes later,
but I know how to do that).
