Tom, Alas, there's no layout support in pvpython. There indeed is a layout proxy (vtkSMLayoutProxy), but they rely on the Qt ParaView components to layout the windows. The proxy itself is the "model", if you will. And it works when you execute the layout related updates in the Python shell in the ParaView UI.
A clumpsy way to set a window's position in Python is: > view.GetRenderWindow().SetPosition(x, y) You can use that to lay out the windows, short of doing something more elaborate with a GUI library.

Now I have to learn about layout objects. Can someone suggest the best way to think about these? Are they containers into which I can drop one or more render views and move them around, or are they more like molds into which I can pour a render view and then use the layout as handles with which to manipulate the views? > Where can I find a list of the methods of a layout object?
