[yt-users] colorbar labels

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Hi Desika

By default, slices of the temperature field are log-scaled.  It looks like
there is less than one order of magnitude in temperature variation, so no
colorbar tick labels are showing up.

You will likely have better results if you switch to linear colorbar
scaling:

slc.set_log('temperature', False)

If you switch to the latest dev version (what will be the upcoming yt 3.1
release) you should have minor tick marks on your plot.

Here's an example I just whipped up:

HTH,

Nathan
