[yt-users] Slice plot in FITS format

[John ZuHone]

Hi Reju,

It may be (it's been a while since I last looked) but I wouldn't rely on it to work the same way or have all of the same features. A lot of changes and enhancements to these features, as well as bug fixes, have gone in since 2.6.

I would strongly recommend using 3.3 for this functionality.

Best,

John Z
