Hi Anton,

Thanks for the suggestion.
--------
from paraview.simple import *
from vtk.vtkRenderingPython import * # <===== NEW LINE
#from vtk.libvtkRenderingPython import *

# Create a view
view = CreateRenderView()

# Initialize a new interactor
iren = vtkRenderWindowInteractor()
iren.SetInteractorStyle(vtkInteractorStyleTrackball())
iren.SetRenderWindow(view.GetRenderWindow())
iren.Initialize()

# Build pipeline
Sphere()
Show()
Render()

# Start interaction
iren.Start()
--------

Gives:
----
$ python test.py
Warning: In /build/buildd/vtk-5.8.0/Rendering/vtkInteractorStyleTrackball.cxx, line 29 vtkInteractorStyleTrackball (0x3798210): vtkInteractorStyleTrackball will be deprecated in
the next release after VTK 4.0. Please use
vtkInteractorStyleSwitch instead.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 11, in <module>
    iren.SetRenderWindow(view.GetRenderWindow())
TypeError: argument 1: method requires a VTK object
----

I don't have any clue about what to do - I suspect it has something to do with the new ubuntu 12.04. Maybe I should fill in a bug report somewhere to ubuntu maintainers (not expactly sure where, however)? Also the pvpython thing, maybe should make me fill in a bug report for ubuntu 12.04 ?
------
$ pvpython test.py
Error converting executable file "/usr/bin/../lib/paraview/pvpython" to real path: No such file or directory
------

Thanks, although it annoys me such a simple example is not working... I cannot get starting learning vtk if I cannot run the simplest examples... :-(

Hello,

try so:

from vtk.vtkRenderingPython import *

pvpython issue needs to be investigated.

Hi,

This, I think should work:

------------------
from paraview.simple import *

# Create a view
view = CreateRenderView()

# Initialize a new interactor
from vtk.libvtkRenderingPython import *
iren = vtkRenderWindowInteractor()
iren.SetInteractorStyle(vtkInteractorStyleTrackball())
iren.SetRenderWindow(view.GetRenderWindow())
iren.Initialize()

# Build pipeline
Sphere()
Show()
Render()

# Start interaction
iren.Start()
----------------

I'm using the latest ubuntu 12.04 so I suspect maybe this isnt too
good... Anyway, when I run the code I get:

-----
$ python test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "test.py", line 7, in<module>
     from vtk.libvtkRenderingPython import *
ImportError: No module named libvtkRenderingPython
-----

I then read that maybe I should better use "pvpython", this gives:

--
$ pvpython test.py
Error converting executable file "/usr/bin/../lib/paraview/pvpython" to
real path: No such file or directory
--


Sorry, I don't have much experience with this. It's a noob question, I
know. I hope somebody knows the answer/solution. Thank you very much -
I've been struggling with this (and making simple paraview python
scripts) for about 10 hours. No I have to ask you guys...
