Steve Spicklemire and I have just released VPython 6.03 which is based on wxPython. This is the culmination of about 7 months of work to restructure VPython to use wxPython for making windows and handling events, cross-platform.
I want to express my deep appreciation and gratitude for the enormously helpful advice generously given in this forum, with special thanks to Robin Dunn and Chris Barker for key contributions (in addition to the huge contribution of Robin to wxPython itself).
You can try this out by visiting the Windows, Mac, or Linux download pages at vpython.org. VPython makes the generation of navigable real-time 3D animations feasible by ordinary mortals. For example, the following two statements are sufficient to produce a 3D cube, with mouse controls for rotating and zooming the camera:
from visual import *
box()
The documentation at vpython.org is for the older VPython 5.74, but the VPython 6.03 installers include up-to-date documentation and a large set of example programs, one of which, widget.py, includes in one window a 3D animation and wxPython widgets. With the older VPython the 3D canvas always filled the window.
How can I install this on ubuntu linux. Would you please attach the DEB file? Please include the documentation. This will be very helpful. GO WXPYTHON…
There is a source tarball on sourceforge

Ack… sorry. There is a source tarball on sourceforge with detailed build instructions. At this point, I think that’s the easiest way to get things going on Ubuntu.

As stated earlier, you can try out VPython 6 by visiting the Windows, Mac, or Linux download pages at vpython.org. On the Linux download page is the key documentation for building on Linux, namely “Read the file INSTALL.txt for instructions on building VPython.” Once installed into dist-packages, inside the main folder there is full documentation on VPython, in visual/docs.
