wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py is a class which allows a VTK rendering in a wxPython window. This class is available here: https:\/\/gitlab.kitware.com\/vtk\/vtk\/blob\/741fffbf6490c34228dfe437f330d854b2494adc\/Wrapping\/Python\/vtkmodules\/wx\/wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One limitation which I found while using this is it if using a PyVista plotter, it does not follow the directives to stop the interactive camera by using plotter.disable()<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made a workaround by adding a kwards argument in the constructor allow_interaction<\/code> which is set to True by default. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This flag is checked in the BindEvents() method and the mouse events are not bound if the interaction is set to False. This simulates the action of the camera being non-interactive.<\/p>\n\n\n
