[Paraview] How to open a render window with paraview python script

[Camilo Cortés]

Hi all,

I want to know how can i make a paraview render window to stop closing after
its opening... Our method is to connect through the servermanager and load a
VTK file (via a dialog), but once loaded we have to make the thread to sleep
for some time to view its contents. I want to avoid sleeping the thread, i
want more like an embedded window or a side frame that never closes, so i
can have some interaction with it.

The code:


            sm.Connect()
            reader =
sm.sources.LegacyVTKFileReader(FileNames=dialog.GetPath())
            renWin = sm.CreateRenderView()
            rep = sm.CreateRepresentation(reader,renWin)
            renWin.StillRender()
            renWin.ResetCamera()
            renWin.StillRender()
            time.sleep(5)


Is there another place besides the Wiki where we can search for info about
python scripting and API?


Thanks in advance


Camilo
