[mesa-users] Visualize the center of a model with PGSTAR

[Josiah Schwab]

Hi All,

I am trying to zoom in on the center of one of my models in PGSTAR.

As part of checking to make sure the mesh is doing a good job for me,
I'd like to be able to watch the evolution of the inner ~100 grid points
on a Profile_Panels plot (or similar).

I can make the xaxis 'zone' and set a dynamic upper limit

    Profile_Panels1_xaxis_name = 'zone'
    Profile_Panels1_xaxis_reversed = .true.
    Profile_Panels1_xmin = ???
    Profile_Panels1_xmax = -101d0

but since nz is changing (by a lot), there's no constant value of xmin
that can do what I want.

I think newer versions support using the extra profile columns as axes,
in which case the answer is obvious: define a column = nz - zone.  But
this calculation is for a paper that froze out at r6596, so I'm looking
for a solution that works back then.

Any ideas?  Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Josiah
