[PyOpenGL-Users] Library choice for basic solid isometric rendering

[Darren H. <da...@dv...>]

I'm looking for a python library to use to do simple 3D-isometric
renderings embedded in a gtk cabinet cad program. I'm looking to do
"solid" renderings with all visible edges in black lines with all the
visible faces a solid white - I don't want to see the occluded parts
of the cabinet. (if there is a term to describe this, please educate
me!). I'd like to be able to convert these to a readily printable
format.

I've looked at several libraries: python-opengl, python-gtkglext,
python-visual, OSG, VTK, crystal-space, ogre, etc. I don't know enough
yet to understand how much of an abstraction I need or which of all of
these is the best starting point. Seeing as how python-opengl would be
involved in most of these  I thought I'd ask here for advice on which
of these to start trying to learn more about.

Also, is there a model format that would be more appropriate than
others for this sort of application.
