Class PlottingManager

Initializing a PlottingManager instance.

Parameters:

• star_name (string) - name of the star from Star.dat, use default only when never using any star model specific things

  (default: "model")

• inputfilename (string) - name of inputfile that is also copied to the output folder of the plots, if None nothing is copied

  (default: None)

• mcmax (bool) - Running MCMax?

  (default: 0)

• gastronoom (bool) - Running GASTRoNOoM?

  (default: 0)

• path_mcmax (string) - modeling folder in MCMax home

  (default: 'runTest')

• path_gastronoom (string) - modeling folder in GASTRoNOoM home

  (default: 'runTest')

• pacs (Pacs()) - A Pacs() object for managing data and model handling for PACS spectra. None if not applicable

  (default: None)

• spire (Spire()) - A Spire() object for managing data and model handling for SPIRE spectra. None if not applicable

  (default: None)

• sed (Sed()) - The SED for managing data and model handling for SED spectra/photometry. None if not applicable

  (default: None)

• fn_add_star (bool) - Add the star name to the requested plot filename. Only relevant if fn_plt is given in a sub method.

  (default: 1)

• plot_pars (dict) - dictionary with all the plotting parameters that turn on or off plotting modules. By default they are all turned off.

  (default: dict())

Start plotting PLOT_INPUT requests for those models that are available (i.e. gastronoom and/or mcmax).

Parameters:

• star_grid (list[Star()]) - list of stars to be plotted
• iterative (int) - if true the old grids are plotted on a model_iteration per model_iteration basis, only works for MCMax models for now.

  (default: 0)

Run the plotTransitions method in the PlotGas object of this manager.

If available, the cfg is taken from the plot input.

Only done if PLOT_GAS_TRANSITIONS is indeed 1 in the CC inputfile. This can be forced through the keyword force.

This method is mainly used if you want to plot a sub selection of models from the main input grid, for instance after statistical selection.

Parameters:

• star_grid (list[Star()]) - The collection of models to be plotted
• force (bool) - Plot the transitions regardless of the PLOT_GAS_TRANSITIONS keyword in cc input, e.g. when the manager is ran outside a cc session.

  (default: 0)

• cfg (string) - The config file. If not given, the manager checks if a cfg file is available in the CC input.

  (default: None)

• fn_suffix (string) - A suffix that is appended to the filename. For instance, when running the plot command for a best fit subgrid of Star() models as to not overwrite the plot of the full grid.

  (default: '')
