Hi,
I am working on some new features for SPE, which is an open-source,
cross-platform python IDE for Blender:
http://pythonide.stani.be
I am preparing both PyCrust (wxPython shell) and IPython to work
together with Blender in the following way:
- connect to Blender with sockets on the same machine or another
machine through a network or the internet
- autocompletion
- calltips
- help about objects (eg. cube? on IPython)
I successfully made a prototype for both which works with the Blender
Game Engine through the always scriptlink. It still a bit rough, but I
am now able to move objects around in Blender through IPython ;-) It
has the advantage that on dual screen you can have Blender on one
screen and IPython/PyCrust on the other.
However for normal Blender modeling (not Game Engine) I was wondering
which scriptlink I could use without blocking the user interface of
Blender. Is there some sort of timer event/scriptlink? Or is there a
better way to do this?
Thanks for any hints,
Stani
