[Visualpython-users] Automation

[Matthew G. <mat...@ya...>]

I'd like to use Visual to model complex items and I'd
like to accomplish these tasks:

  Store the data (pos, axis, color, etc) for
  each individual component of a complex item
  in a database

  Pull the data from the database and feed it
  into Visual

  Automate the process of refreshing the scene
  when changes are made to the data

I picture the Visual window running on one computer
while on another computer I manipulate the data using
standard DB tools.  Periodically, the scene will be
refreshed and I can look at the results of my data
manipulation.

If anyone has learned any nuances of Visual's behavior
that might help me accomplish these tasks, I'd be
grateful for the sharing.

Thanks so much,

Matthew Grimm

ps.  Visual rocks! - I've been able to accomplish in
few hours what has taken weeks to do in the past -
nice work Team Visual!
