[Visualpython-users] 'sphere' object is unindexable

[CL <clc...@gm...>]

You can simply assign the sphere object to a variable and reference it
later. e.g.:

from visual import *

ball=[]
for i in [0,1]:
 s=sphere(pos=(0,i,0), radius=0.1)
 ball.append(s)


while True:
 if scene.mouse.events:
   m = scene.mouse.getevent()
   if m.pick is ball[0]:
     ball[0].color = color.red
   if m.pick is ball[1]:
     ball[1].color = color.blue
