    Hi Elizabeth,<br>
    <br>
    You could always include these lines in your script:<br>
    <br>
    import os<br>
    old_filename =
    'GT_BTAccel_256AMR4_PeHeat_sf5_SNe_0301_Slice_z_PotentialField'<br>
    count = 0<br>
    <whatever code generates your png file><br>
    new_filename = "%s_%04i.png" % (old_filename, count)<br>
    os.rename(old_filename, new_filename)<code><br>
    </code> count += 1<br>
    <code></code>...<br>
    <br>
    I don't think there is an automatic filename iterator (instead of
    clobberer) in yt.  Maybe I'll look at adding one later.<br>

      <pre wrap="">Hi,

I'd like to create a bunch of slices of the same field, but with different options (width, modifiers etc). Is it possible to change the file name yt saves the plots under so:

GT_BTAccel_256AMR4_PeHeat_sf5_SNe_0301_Slice_z_PotentialField.png


Doesn't get over-written with each one?

Thanks you~

Elizabeth
