Hi Raymond
The general idea is that for every PyQGIS module (e.g. "core") there is
a compiled python module (e.g. _core.so) and a directory acting as a
module ("core") which imports the compiled module and adds some extra
functionality (docstrings and more). So normally one wants to use import
qgis.core instead of qgis._core.
Now with the 3d module things are not so great, because "3d" is not a
valid module name because of the leading digit, so import qgis.3d simply
won't work. There are some ways to work it around [1], but I wouldn't
recommend using them. But as stated earlier, importing qgis._3d should
generally do the job.
It is probably worth creating a ticket to address this, but I am not
sure how to best fix it - probably the whole module should be renamed so
avoid the leading digit - e.g. "threed"

While trying to import a 3D class in a python script, I found out that
the code in the pyqgis docs is not working (for me):
from qgis.3d import QgsLayoutItem3DMap
Instead I need to add an underscore for the 3d module name:
from qgis._3d import QgsLayoutItem3DMap
Should this be fixed in the documentation? I'm not all sure, cause when
trying to fix it, I found this related commit:
https://github.com/qgis/pyqgis/commit/1ac564790aa0b7abbd003c04d07358d8e4f14493
This is the page in the docs:
https://qgis.org/pyqgis/master/3d/QgsLayoutItem3DMap.html
Should I make an issue? It took me a while to figure out that _3d
solution.
Cheers,
Raymond

I just wanted to point out that QGIS itself imports the 3d library using qgis._3d, so it should be the correct module name to use. Best regards.

Hi Andrea, I know, but my script is not running in the console. It is part of a plugin, so I need to do the import. Would be handy if the documentation tells me how to do it.
