@David,<br>
<br>
I put a snapshot file on github (
<a href="https://github.com/hainest/Gadget2_test" target="_blank">https://github.com/hainest/Gadget2_test</a>).
Let me know if you need more of them.<br>
<br>
@George,<br>
<br>
My apologies, I realize now that my description wasn't specific
enough. I put a screenshot of the snapshot in the github repo I
linked above. When I color the particles by mass, it appears that
they are being rendered using the velocity values rather than the
position values to determine their coordinate in the volume. I hope
that clarifies things a bit more.<br>
<br>
Many thanks for all of your help!<br>
<br>

Hi Tim,
I believe the position vector is used as the xyz position of the particles
that are being rendered, so, you cannot color by the position. Do you see
any particles when you open the file?
Best,
George

Can you share or point us to a url for a small Gadget2 data set that we can
try with?
