(I still use it for many of my projects, too.) To get the true Python-wrapped QVTKWidget you need to build the git (development) version of VTK with VTK_WRAP_PYTHON_SIP turned ON (for which you need sip and maybe other dependencies). After you build it all, the widget is loaded as part of vtk/qvtk.py, which loads the QVTKPython library.<div><br></div><div>Good luck,</div><div>-Eric</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Nov 3, 2010, at 11:49 AM, Prathamesh Kulkarni wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">Thank you for the quick example. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; "> </span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; "><br>

Hello all,<br><br>I want to create a GUI using PyQt4 and display a vtkImage inside it. For that, I need to embed a QVTKWidget in my GUI. However, I get 'ImportError: No module named qvtk' when I do import vtk.qvtk as given in <a href="http://vtk.1045678.n5.nabble.com/about-vtk-python-bindings-and-Qt-td2841114i20.html" target="_blank">http://vtk.1045678.n5.nabble.com/about-vtk-python-bindings-and-Qt-td2841114i20.html</a> . I am confused about how to get started with this and did not find examples demonstrating this. <br>
<div><br></div><div>Please point me to the steps for writing this "hello world".</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Prathamesh</div></div>
