Pick Mesh
Holds the dataset behind the mesh picked in a Plotter's viewport: whatever was wired into that Plot, faces and values included, so it can be drawn again as is. With pick_through on, the nearest crossed Plot along the ray wins.

Plotter ▸ Plotter
XYZ Plotter
A 3-D viewport that draws everything connected to its scene port, converting (r, θ, φ) positions to Cartesian x, y, z. It is the usual choice for solar and heliospheric scenes, and it can draw a spherical grid of lines (r, θ and φ ranges with line counts) behind the scene; the Grid Lines node draws the same kind of grid as a dataset.
RTP Plotter
A 3-D viewport that draws (r, θ, φ) values directly as x, y, z, with no conversion, for data in its own coordinate space. The Sun glyph, line-of-sight and field-of-view views and solar-north up do not apply.
Plotter · direct entries
Plot
Draws a dataset in a Plotter, colored by value, a solid color or explicit RGBA, with options for colormap and limits, opacity (a number, a named profile or a custom @name curve), lines and tubes, points and spheres, the scalar bar and volume blending. The colors input appears while color_by is rgba. A stack's Stack Form draws it as points, splines, a reconstructed surface or its own mesh faces; surface is refused above 25,000 finite points, so thin a traced stack with Downsample first.
Camera
Sets the viewport camera: explicit position and focus, or line-of-sight and field-of-view views, plus a roll angle. Its pos port can be driven by a pick.

Thomson Sphere
The Thomson sphere for an observer: a sphere centered halfway between the Sun and the observer, with a diameter equal to their distance. theta_resolution is polar and phi_resolution azimuthal.

Wire a spacecraft ephemeris into path for a curtain hanging below the trajectory, and Sample it through a field to color it. radial_res sets the number of quads between the inner radius and the path.

Generators
Generators ▸ Reader ▸ HDF 3D
MAS File
Reads MAS model output from one file, a directory of time steps, a psi-data-utils sample run or the export cache folder. It knows MAS quantities, units and mesh staggering. The Directory and Cache Directory sources scan a filename pattern for the quantities you list; the psi-data-utils (run) source takes a whole sample run and fetches its files on demand. For every directory-style source, Time Mode chooses the step: By Sequence takes a sequence number, By Date the file nearest a date (a Directory or Cache Directory source needs the origin date t0) and By Time the file nearest an elapsed time. The Cache Directory source reads the folder an Exporter's Cache Directory destination writes to, and a reader watching that folder notices new files when an export finishes.

Reads POT3D model output. It works like MAS File with the quantities POT3D produces.
Custom 3D File
Reads a 3-D HDF file of any layout, with full control over variable, axes, scales and units.

HDF 1D File
Reads a single named coordinate axis from a generic HDF file.
Geometry File
Reads one or more N-D HDF datasets that share a point layout: a geometry dataset of coordinates plus any number of matching value datasets.
Generators ▸ Tracer
Trace Domain
Traces magnetic field lines from launch points through a Tracer: forward along the field, backward against it, or both ways joined into one line per launch point. Lines can carry their length or polarity. r0 and r1 default to the radial extent of the field's main mesh and, with atol, are in the file's own solar radii (PSI_rsun).
Trace Multi Domain
Traces field lines across two domains, through a coronal Tracer and a heliospheric Tracer joined at an interface radius.
Flow Along Lines
Re-times existing field lines by the plasma speed along them, and resamples every line at uniform travel-time instants. flow runs each line with the plasma (from its upstream end) or against it (from its downstream end); a segment slower than stall stops the particle there. Drop it between a trace and a Slice window so an animated window follows the plasma speed instead of the point index.
Tracer
Holds the three magnetic field components (Br, Bt, Bp) for the field-line tracer. It does no work itself; the Trace nodes ask it for field lines.
