[Visualpython-users] Mouse events handling and getting the prompt back

[Michele M. <mat...@gm...>]

Dear list,

Is there anyway to get the prompt back and still having the vpython
window able to respond to the event?
The window can zoom and rotate and return the prompt. I would like to
achieve the same result, but handling other kind of mouse events.

My goal is to launch the application and get back the ipython prompt

Is that possible?

Consider the following code:

import visual as vs

scene = vs.display(title="test")
vs.sphere()

while (True):
    if scene.mouse.clicked:
            m = scene.mouse.getclick()
            loc = m.pos
            print loc
            picked = m.pick
            if picked:
                picked.color = (0,0,1) #blue

Is there any other way to process the events instead of using the while?

Cheers,
Michele
