Dear Steven and Meep users. I ran a short 3-d simulation with an Ez source, outputting the eps file and all 6 fields - ex, ey, ez, hx, hy, and hz - at the end of the run. I used a single processor and did not use symmetry of any sort.
Running H5topng on slices (-x 0:1:14) seemed to work but all of the field PNG images were Black. The h5topng .png slice images of the eps.h5 file were white showing nothing. I looked at the .h5 files using HDFView, opening the files as image, ran the animation feature, and observed some very nice field images in all of the files, and also found that the eps.h5 file was complete. I used these commands, ; h5topng -x 0:1:14 -c -yarg -m1 -M12 ./cone-out/eps-000000.00.h5 ; h5topng -x 0:1:14 -R -Zc dkbluered -a yarg -A ./cone-out/eps-000000.00.h5 ./cone-out/ez-000010.00.h5 Does anyone see an error or incompatibility in the options I used? The other thing I noticed when using HDFView to look at the field files is that the fields - ey, hx and hz - change phase along a vertical. That is, where the fields are black and white on the left side, they are white and black on the right side. I suspect a bug in the Meep processing of these field outputs. If necessary, I can provide a test control file to reproduce this condition.
