Thanks,

I am currently using Visit which works well.  I thought that it might be simpler to make line plots by getting at the data directly.  It looks like I was incorrect.

I opened the hdf5 file and see the variables I need but I am confused by their shape.  The ion variables, as well as velocity and temperature have a shape of (5,1,8,8).  Does anyone know what these dimensions correspond to and/or how to map the variables to position?
