<div>I am new to both Python and Paraview...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In a Windows environment, Paraview 3.8, I want to be able to plot 3d images in a separate paraview window (not using the paraview GUI). When using the pvpython.exe Python window and the following commands:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>import os</div>
<div>import paraview</div>
<div>from paraview.simple import *</div>
<div>from paraview.servermanager import *</div>
<div>Connect()</div>
<div>sph=Sphere()</div>
<div>elev=Elevation(sph)</div>
<div>Show(elev)</div>
<div>Render()</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This creates a new window and renders a sphere, but the window locks up and I get an hourglass whenever the mouse pointer is inside the plot window. The only way to get rid of the plot is to kill my pvpython.exe window.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When I use the same commands from the Python command window provided by the GUI, these commands work fine.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>How can I make the pvpython.exe separate window work like the GUI/Python command window?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
