threejs

[Thierry Dumont]

What about the optional package threejs ?

As far as I remember, the idea was to replace jmol with it.
(But may be I am wrong).

Is this always an active project? Is it an orphan project ? Are there
difficult problems to solve ?

t.d.

That was an idea - or at least to have this as another option.  I believe (?) William uses, or used for a while, a souped-up version for 3d graphics in SMC.

I don't see why we can't keep it around.

could be useful for Jupyter?

I believe the javascript version of Jmol, JSmol, actually uses a modified version of threejs for some of its 3D rendering.  Thus it is also embedded in the Jmol/JSmol package.

MMMhhh, interesting!

Do you think it would be possible to replace jmol by jsmol in sage?
or keep both and choose which on to use?

This is already possible!  In the notebook - thanks to tons of work by Jonathan and Volker.  I don't know how that would work from command line though, as it would have to open a browser or something?

Great, yes, but how do I proceed to switch to jsmol?

I think it is already the default way to show 3d graphics in the notebook in the last versions. Isn't it?

Correct.  But I think he means how to use it from the *command line* - yes?  I wouldn't know about this; one would have to autolaunch a browser, I guess, and other annoyances, not to mention creating things... but it should be possible without any new packages or anything.
