PyTecplot: Tecplot 360 EX Python Library¶
The pytecplot library is a high level API that connects your Python script to the power of the Tecplot 360 EX visualization engine. It offers line plotting, 2D and 3D surface plots in a variety of formats, and 3D volumetric visualization. Familiarity with Tecplot 360 EX and the Tecplot 360 EX macro language is helpful, but not required.
Note
PyTecplot supports 64-bit Python versions 2.7 and 3.4+. PyTecplot does not support 32 bit Python. Please refer to Installation for installation instructions and environment setup. For the best experience, developers are encouraged to use the latest version of Python. If you need help converting to Python 3 or wish to write code compatible with 2 and 3, please refer to the Python-Future Cheat Sheet.
