Version 1.7
On June 26, 2010 we released version 1.7. Most prominently, it features "two-point functions" such as structure and correlation functions, a re-engineered volume rendering interface, multivariate volume rendering, off-axis projections, and a mechanism for complex postscript plot layout. Additionally, a major aspect of the drive to 1.7 has been re-engineering the API documentation to be better suited to interactive help (the "help(...)" call in python) as well as the documentation website.
- Direct writing of PNGs
- Multi-band image writing
- Parallel halo merger tree
- Parallel structure function generator
- Image pan and zoom object and display widget
- Parallel volume rendering
- Multivariate volume rendering, allowing for multiple forms of emission and absorption
- Added Camera interface to volume rendering
- Off-axis projection
- Stereo (toe-in) volume rendering
- DualEPS extension for better EPS construction
- Rewritten, memory conservative and speed-improved contour finding algorithm
- Speed improvements to volume rendering
- Preliminary support for the Tiger code
- Lightweight projection loading with projload
- Improvements to yt.data_objects.time_series
- Improvements to yt.extensions.EnzoSimulation?
- Speed improvements to basic HOP
- Better docstrings and documentation
HELP!
If you're having trouble with installation or usage, please feel free to email the users' list. Alternatively, please feel free to contact one of the developers, whose names are sprinkled throughout the source code. (But be forewarned, they might change CC the mailing list on any replies, in case somebody else is having a similar problem!)
