Re: [Visualpython-users] Experimental 64-bit VPython for Windows based on wxPython

[Symion <kn...@ip...>]

This is wonderful!!
I now have Visual Python with a MENU item 'Files', running on Windows XP!
ALL examples have been run without error and everything seems very stable.

Specifically I am using:
     Vpython ('6.00', 'release') running with Python 2.7.3 on Windows XP

Of course this  raises lots of questions...

Although 'help(vis)' provides much information and dir(vis.scene.window) 
reveals 335 instancemethods and 82 other objects.
I do have a few questions that are not currently addressed by the 
documentation.

The main one is:
     How do I make new window Menu objects?
     Does Vpython use TCL? or do I have to learn wxPython methodologies?
      Is it possible to make Buttons, Sliders, List Boxes or even Window 
Panes from WITHIN Visual?

I hope the Documentation will eventually address these topics in detail.

The Only 'error' I have found is this.
There is this anomalous error report when I am in V-IDLE shell and I 
break program with 'ctrl-c'.

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "K:\Symion_12_12_12\visdemo.py", line 6
     import vis
   File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\vis\__init__.py", line 17
   File "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\visual_common\rate_plan.py", line 
122, in __call__
     sleep(desiredLoopTime - currTime)
TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

Hope this means something to you...

Finally, it is really good to see The Project evolving.
