[yt-users] surf.export_ply issues

[Naiman, Jill]

Hi Tomer,

One thing you might try is the export_obj function instead of the
export_ply since its been updated more recently.  I think it *should* work
on particle data these days (though, someone should correct me if I'm
wrong).

If that doesn't work, please let the list know though.

Cheers,
-Jill
