[yt-users] OffAxisProjection axes problems

[Stephanie Tonnesen]

Right, I have my north vector, which I *think* is why my z-axis (Image y)
looks correct.  Unfortunately I can't specify an east_vector.  I will keep
playing and if I come up with something clever I will let ppl know.

Thanks for thinking about this with me!

Stephanie
