[yt-users] load structured mesh

[John ZuHone]

If by "non-uniform" you mean that you have grids of differing resolutions then yt and grid data format support that, but if you have cell spacing varying _inside_ a grid then yt does not yet support this. We're working on it, but it will probably take some time before it is operational.

Currently what it does is use “logr” as the coordinate instead of r, which may not be very ideal for every situation. A lot of yt functionality is probably not compatible with this way of doing things.
