Configuration

When import the pyenki viewer with

import pyenki.viewer

it checks whether pyenki has been built with Qt support (native renderer) and/or PySide6 is installed (Python renderer). In case no implementation is available, it raises an exception. In case one implementation is available, it selects it. In case both implementations are available, it selects the one specified by the PYENKI_NATIVE_RENDER environment variable. Set it to 1, ON or TRUE to select the native renderer, before the viewer is imported. That is, set it to

PYENKI_NATIVE_RENDER=0

to select the Python renderer and to

PYENKI_NATIVE_RENDER=1

to select the native renderer.

We can check which implementation has been selected with

>>> pyenki.viewer.use_native
False
