Sorry, want to correct myself.<div><br></div><div>When the above code is run, no error occurs at the command line, but a window comes up saying "vtkpython.exe has stopped working". The way I run the code is in command line, using the vtkpython exe. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If I instead, change the red line to: </div><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'courier new'; font-size: 10px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: rgb(255, 204, 102);">QtCore.QObject.connect(self.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: rgb(255, 204, 102);">ui.button_importMesh, QtCore.SIGNAL("clicked()"), displayMesh)</span></span></div>
<div><br>that is, removing the VTKGraphics part, which is the class name, then the error says that displayMesh is not defined.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Helvin </div><div><br></div><div>p.s Please help!</div>
