[SciPy-User] ANN: Visvis version 1.3 (includes meshes and lighting)

[Almar Klein]

Hi all,

I am exited to announce version 1.3 of Visvis, the object oriented approach
to visualization.

Website: http://code.google.com/p/visvis/
Discussion group: http://groups.google.com/group/visvis/
Documentation: http://code.google.com/p/visvis/wiki/Visvis_basics

The largest improvement is the Mesh class to represent triangular and quad
meshes and surface data. The Axes class got a property to access 8 different
light sources. These improvements enable numerous new possibilities to
visualize data using Visvis. Further changes include the introduction of
polar plotting and 3D bar charts. For a (more) complete list of changes see
the release notes <http://code.google.com/p/visvis/wiki/releaseNotes>.


=== Description ===

Visvis is a pure Python library for visualization of 1D to 4D data in an
object oriented way. Essentially, visvis is an object oriented layer of
Python on top of OpenGl? <http://code.google.com/p/visvis/w/edit/OpenGl>,
thereby combining the power of
OpenGl?<http://code.google.com/p/visvis/w/edit/OpenGl>with the
usability of Python. A Matlab-like interface in the form of a set
of functions allows easy creation of objects (e.g. plot(), imshow(),
volshow(), surf()).

Regards,
  Almar
