However, I'm still curious as to how the person in question discovered how to do it. Where is all the good python documentation/lore stored? The wiki wasn't too helpful to me in that respect, i.e., as a reference, although it has a lot of good ideas/information. -- Rich On Oct 30, 2013, at 5:05 PM, "Cook, Rich" <coo...@llnl.gov<mailto:coo...@llnl.gov>> wrote: I recorded a script to try to understand how to export a time series of an isosurface as .x3d files so I can muck with them using blender. But when I look at the script, the crucial bit of exporting the .x3d did not get captured. Is that part not scriptable? How can I go about finding out for myself which file formats can be exported from python scripts, if any?
