[mesa-users] MESAFace, a few small changes

[Giannotti, Maurizio]

Hello All,

We have made a few small improvements to MESAFace, mostly based on suggestions from various users. Thanks a lot for the comments. The updated version is on the MESA Forum page.

The most important changes are:
1) We have corrected the part of the code to write the top label in the History Plots. Now it locates the mass and metallicity in star.log rather than assuming their position. In this way it works with any version of MESA (thanks Grant, for pointing this problem out).
2) The functions from the show menu (example log or power) are now applied to the data after, not before, the scaling factor is applied. For example, if one axis is set to age in Myr (rather than the default unit, yr) and you apply the log to that axis, MESAFace shows log[age in Myr]. In the previous version it would have shown 10^{-6}*(log[age in yr]).

Thanks for all your comments,
Maurizio, Michael, Aaron.
