#Instructions:
# - First, modify "MODIFY" section with the proper paths
# - Open VisIt, select Controls:Launch CLI
# - A terminal should open with >>>
# - Copy and paste everything between BEGIN COPY and END COPY
# - Copy and paste plot commands one by one

##---BEGIN COPY---------------

##-- MODIFY -------------------
##--Set path to scripts----
SCRIPT_PATH = "/Users/lllowe/visit-scripts"
#Put the full path to the file
FILE_NAME = "/Users/lllowe/A-CGEM/outputs-srand/GEN_4_1.nc"
##-- END MODIFY ---------------

#So it can find setup_visit.py
import sys 
sys.path.append(SCRIPT_PATH)

from visit import *
from setup_visit import *

#If clim=1, choose the min/max for colormap
