Python Tutorials

Vortex Studio comes with some Python tutorials that demonstrate several use cases.

Although Vortex Studio supports Python 3 on both Windows and Linux, the Python tutorials are only available on Windows.

These samples can be made to run on Linux but may require modifications as not all features are available.

The Vortex python module (Vortex.py) is compatible with Python 3.8.

Tutorials

Using the tutorials

The Python tutorials are located in <Vortex Studio Installation Folder>\tutorials\Python when installed on Windows.

The <Vortex Studio Installation Folder>/bin folder should be accessible to your script.

Make sure the PYTHONPATH environment variable contains the path to the tutorial folder.

If your PYTHONPATH is not set up, your scripts will return the error "No module named Vortex" or "No module named VxSim".
