Using a graph in a Panda3D window

[rdb]

Hi, welcome to the forums!

To get it into a Panda3D Texture object, you can create a Texture with the right dimensions, format and component type, and then you can call setRamImage(img, "RGB") where img is some type of byte buffer object that other imaging libraries usually have a way to obtain raw image data in.

Then you can apply the texture to a card, or something like that.

This was a similar question:

Loading a texture image from file-like object

I would like to create scientific plots using matplotlib and then dynamically load the plots as a texture to be displayed on 3D geometry in Panda3D. I want to do this in memory, rather than saving the plot image to the hard drive and then loading the the texture from the file. I imagine there is a way to do this but I’m not sure what approach to take. Matplotlib allows figures to be saved to a file-like object, I can use PIL to open the file-like object and access the pixel data. From there,…
