Re: [Visualpython-users] a new Linux install solution for Visual Python

[Paul C. <PC...@sp...>]

I have a student running Vpython on a Mac who has run into a problem I've 
never seen before. She has an animation program that works. It creates 
objects, updates positions and such. However, the animation window itself 
is a featureless light gray box until the program is complete. Then the 
final state of the objects appears.

I've copied the program to my Windows VPython installation and it runs 
just fine. Well, the physics is wrong currently, but it does what it was 
told to do and I can see the full animation.

Has anyone seen this behavior before?
