Re: [Visualpython-users] draw images on objects

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

If you want to create an object that is not already part of VPython, and 
cannot be constructed by a combination of existing objects, then you'll 
need to use the low-level "faces" object which is a list of triangles 
and normals to those triangles. It is of course tedious to build a cup 
this way, but that's the only way to do it at present. You might reduce 
the labor by using some 3D modeling program to create a cup, export a 
description in terms of primitive elements, and write a Python program 
to read that description and output a file containing appropriate 
"faces" parameters.
