Yes, that's what I want. I hope that someone can give me a hint on how to
do it. In the minimal example below I want the spiral to keep its shape
fixed, still autoscaling when points fall outside the actual window.
BTW, running the example results in the following error message on my
computer:
VPython WARNING: errors in shader program:
It does not seem to be fatal but I would like to know what the reason is
and how to get rid of it.

You can of course specify the axis scales explicitly, so I assume you are asking whether there is a way to permit autoscaling but force the scale factors to be equal. No, there isn't a way to do that. However, note that the graph module is pure VPython, so feel free to implement what you want.

Shaders, which are programs that run in Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) on the graphics card, are invoked by VPython only for programs that involve materials such as materials.wood. VPython attempts to identify computers that lack GPUs (a netbook might well fall into that category) and just display objects without materials, and issues a message to that effect. The message is just informational; the program should run, just not display with material properties. >From the download page at vpython.org: Materials such as wood will work with graphics cards that support Pixel Shader 3.0 ("PS 3.0"). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_shader#Hardware. Some materials may work with graphics cards that support PS 2.0, but other materials may need to be manually disabled: In the folder C:\PythonNN\Lib\site-packages\vis, edit the file site-settings.py to uncomment one or the other pair of Python statements. If the graphics hardware does not support pixel shaders, the material property is ignored. If you think you should be able to use materials but have trouble with their display or performance, we highly recommend upgrading your video card drivers to the latest version.

One of my exchange students from Italy has an EEEpc (a netbook) with Windows Starter Edition on it. She has installed VPython (using Python 2.7 from the VPython.org site) twice, and we keep running into errors when trying to run VPython files. I'm sorry I do not have the errors written down, but I believe one of them was a compile error having to do with the shader (or some combination of keywords like that). I have not had a chance to sit down and fully go through the install with her, but before I start troubleshooting on my own (with the associated language difficulties), is there a known problem with running VPython on a netbook running Windows Starter Edition? |

Thanks to all who have responded. I had suspected that, in most cases at least, the students were not following directions to install the correct version for the operating system. I got worried when I read on python.org about the Tcl/Tk issues with different OS X versions, not sure whether that applied here... I will report back specifics if anyone continues to have a problem.

Subject: Mac OS X install questions The vpython.org download page for python 3.2 links to a .dmg file on the python site for Mac OS X 10.3-10.6. I do not have a Mac, and many of my students who do use Macs are saying the 10.3 dmg file "is not working" with vpython. What I find particularly confusing is that the 10.3 dmg file is stated as being for OS X 10.3 to 10.6, and then the more recent file is for 10.6 to 10.7. Perhaps the intervals are only half-open, but it looks to the students as if either one should work for 10.6. I have two questions. 1. Will Visual Python work with the more recent .dmg file for Python 3.2 for Max OS X 10.6 and later? 2. Will Visual Python work with either of the Python 3.3 installs for Mac?

I'm not familiar enough with OSX to figure out why.

I am running Mountain Lion. Just tried the path with Python 2.7.3 and the appropriate VPython….5.74 Seems to work, I can run bounce2.py with VIDLE and am also able to start the tutorial with the sphere and wall within ipython, with the usual problem that when closing the visual scene window the ipython closes as well. Forgot if there was a solution to that? That's all I can say for now.

There is some confusion about OSX version numbers (the OSX versions with which a particular Python will work are overly conservative), but at least until recently the files available on the vpython.org Mac download page definitely worked. However, I wonder whether the latest Mac OSX (Mountain Lion) has broken VPython. Does someone on this list have access to Mountain Lion and can report whether VPython works? As for your students, what version of OSX are they using? Because the bulk of VPython is written in C++, it has to be compiled for specific versions of Python. So no, you can't take a VPython module built for some version of Python other than 3.3 and use it with Python 3.3.

I have added information to the existing bug on launchpad for the python-visual package. Let's hope that the maintainer knows what to do in order to escalate it to the right instances to get it resolved for the future. Also, if you're on Ubuntu and have got the problem, you may want to mark yourself as being affected in order to increase the priority of the bug, and improve chances of somebody working on it. Also, if you do have further insights, a further confirmation, or other conditions under which it occurs, please also specify those in an additional comment. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-visual/+bug/787932 Thanks, Guy -- Guy K.

I just modify a bit the vpython code to admit a new stereo mode called "real". This mode, try to simulate the real vision, what an observer view in the real world. I have used the stereodepth as a half distance between eyes, although I should have create a new parameter. I've used a real vector rather normalized vector because,I think is more realistic. This mode doesn't use the range (gcf) value, that it's not needed. You can make the zoom using the user scale. This mode fix the point of view of the two cameras separated by a given distance and look at the center. It's the first version, and probably there will be things to improve.I need this mode for my project, I'm working in a stereoscopic robot, and I using vpython as a way to represent (for now) a simple reality. I attach the new code display_kernel.cpp display_kernel.hpp and ui.py Best regards, |

Found Fedora 7 and 9 rpms of VPython but they will not install. They gripe
about not having boost-python and libxml installed though both of those
verify as already installed.

I have not done it, but here are some suggestions.
1. Install gtkglextmm-devel too, and the -devel package for
any other dependency that you see, e.g. gtkglext-devel and
libXmu-devel and libglademm24-devel.
2. If you want to avoid compiling altogether, try installing
a python-visual rpm from a slightly older
version of Fedora (like Fedora 11, 12 or 13). Often older
Fedora packages will install on CentOS/RHEL.
3. Build python-visual from a Fedora source rpm.
rpmbuild --rebuild python-visual-etc-f12-src.rpm
This will require all the dependencies that are in (1), but
you'll have a nice package for installation.

Thanks for the advice but this is not working for me and I don't have
additional time to spend on it right now. I run into the following
problems:
1. Can't apparently have gtkglextmm-devel. It is not in any of the
Scientific Linux repositories, nor rpmforge nor atrpms. An rpm can be
located on the web and downloaded, and the installation appears to
complete but it doesn't actually do anything.
2. The earliest Fedora version I can locate is 15 for which there are a
host of dependency failures. To wit:
3. Wants Python 2.7 and SL only goes up to 2.6. That I took care of.
4. Wants glibc 3.4.15 but glibc doesn't appear to exist in a version
higher than 2.14
5. Wants the boost libraries which I installed yesterday. Or appeared to.
Could have been like #1 above.
6. Wants gtkglextmm (not devel) but yum tells me that is already
installed.
In short, it looks like a conflict between the dependency demands of
visual python for fedora 15, some broken packages, and the long term
stability needs of SL. Since this isn't a critical need at the moment, I
don't think I want to wade into this swamp unless someone has an idea I
haven't thought of.

Or any other Red Hat derived linux, like CentOS, would probably help.
I can't find a package or I'd go that route. Building from source produces
an error during configure that I need gtkglextmm 1.2. I downloaded that
and successfully (apparently -- no error messages) made it. But then
trying to configure VPython produces the same error. I also found an rpm
for gtkglextmm, installed it (again apparently successfully) and Vpython
still won't configure.
I am now officially at my wits end. Has anyone else managed to do this?

I am attempting to run VPython using the stock Ubuntu package (python-visual Ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit), not building it myself. It works out of the box with a clean install and update of all installed packages. However, it appears that some other package that I install later on breaks VPython. It also appears that the issue is somehow tied to NVIDIA drivers, since I don't have this problem on machines with Intel graphics. Others have reported that the seg fault starts after updating the NVIDIA pacakges for CUDA. I have not done that (yet), so it appears the problem is more general than that. Hopefully, we'll be able to track down the offending packages once I get some lab help back later this week. >> >> --John >> >> John Zelle, PhD >> Professor of Computer Science >> Wartburg College > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
