d2= second dimension to plot

d3= third dimension to plot

ro= (Object-wide default) physical scale for distances to use to convert (can be Quantity)

vo= (Object-wide default) physical scale for velocities to use to convert (can be Quantity)

use_physical= use to override Object-wide default for using a physical scale for output
