I feel like this should be easier to find. Aug '19, I've searched google and stack with no easy answers.  In Blender 2.8:  I'm looking for the code similar to Print("MY_MESSAGE") into the Info window. Obviously it's easy to use Print('...') into the System Console - sys console unrelated to this question.  I'm looking for any sample code I can literally copy paste into my Blender Text Editor window and run with results.  tldr: one-liner print shit to Info window, pls how?!

I wonder if it is currently possible to print or send messages to the Report window in the Info view? this would be quite useful sometimes.

I'm trying to figure out a good workflow for developing scripts and add-ons in Blender. Here's what I'm currently doing as I try my luck with a PyNode add-on:   Open blender Create a text editor panel Open my script (external text file) Edit my script in a nice external editor Reload the script Save the .blend file Run the script   Now that I can see what my code does, this Blender instance has been modified, so I can't (make changes to my script and) run my script again. So I do this:   Close blender Open blender with the .blend from step 6 and repeat steps 4-7, over and over and over..   Is there a better workflow for this sort of thing?

Is there a way to use the Blender Text Editor for adding a custom menu and not get a duplicate every time I click on "Run Script" to test the menu? For example, in the text editor, load the template like so:  Template -> Python -> UI Menu  Then notice every time you press "Run Script" you get another menu in your main menu bar. How can I update my menu without getting a duplicate?  I tried simply commenting out register() but then new updates don't show up.

Is there any way to get blender to render on systems without a GUI?  Over the network on systems with a GUI?  I know of a service that will let you buy virtual servers that are charged by the hour, not the month, allowing to purchase extra performance on demand very cheaply!  The question itself is OS-agnostic, but in this case you can essentially respond in a any OS you would like.

Since TeX and LaTeX can print out any text, it should be possible to write a self-replicating document, i.e., a document that is typeset as a PDF/DVI of itself. Have you seen something like that?

I am a highschool student working at a college's engineering department for the summer. I just began working in blender and have intermediate knowledge of python. Could anyone share a script they've made that can:  1) Read a text file of xyz coordinates into python.  2) Turn these points into some type of curve or path that an object can then follow to model the path the coordinates map out.   Like i said i don't have a great understanding of blender but if someone could write or give me a script that is able to do this it would help. Please explain in simple terms also.. Again I am not an expert.   The file has three points on each line, separated by commmas, and is pretty large. All the coordinates would need to be floats on account that they are decimals.     -4.934860e-06 , -1.380798e-06 , -1.504166e-05 ,  -1.359547e-05 , -4.301138e-06 , -4.403530e-05 ,  -3.727631e-05 , -1.307421e-05 , -1.287422e-04 ,  -7.177810e-05 , -2.724715e-05 , -2.643154e-04 ,    here are some of the data points when in the text file  now with the .csv they were put into an excel file   when copied and pasted they look like this:  -4.93E-06   -1.38E-06   -1.50E-05

Ok so i am a bit of a noob in blender, so I need help with this.  I am trying to texture something, but there is no texture button where there should be, because the blender edge window cuts it off here's a picture

How can I return to the start of a line and overwrite what has already been output on the console? The following does not appear to work:  System.out.print(mystuff+'\r');

I am 100% new to Blender and to the Blender Manual.  Could anyone tell me what a blend file is please.  It is discussed at length in the manual except for explaining what a blend file is.

Can we know, with python, if the system console of blender is open? I know that we can open or close it with this function:  bpy.ops.wm.console_toggle()   But it doesn't return the 'state' of the system console like open or closed (True,False).  I want to be sure that the console is open when i execute one of my script.

I'm working on a web application that needs to prints silently -- that is without user involvement.  What's the best way to accomplish this?  It doesn't like it can be done with strictly with Javascript, nor Flash and/or AIR.  The closest I've seen involves a Java applet.  I can understand why it would a Bad Idea for just any website to be able to do this.  This specific instance is for an internal application, and it's perfectly acceptable if the user needs to add the URL to a trusted site list, install an addon, etc.

is a simple way to script small GUIs.  Can anyone give a nice example with a button and a text widget. When the button is pressed should a shell command be executed and the output piped to the text widget.  If you have other nice and clean examples for useful tasks, please add them too.

Mail logs are incredibly difficult to read. How could I output a blank line between each line printed on the command line? For example, say I'm grep-ing the log. That way, multiple wrapped lines aren't being confused.

In many applications, Command-P is used to print.  My fingers are accustomed to emacs settings and reflexively press Command-P not for printing but for browsing history. It's annoying to see the print pop-up window every time when I press Command-P. I don't need a shortcut to print. How do you block a shortcut globally?

What is the command to insert inline code words into the text like this?   I know there are packages for inserting snippets into the code, but I need to insert keywords within the main text. I was wondering if there is a more convenient way to do that.

I haven't had the chance to take any serious low-level programming courses in school. (I know I really should get going on learning the "behind-the-scenes" to be a better programmer.) I appreciate the conveniences of Java, including the ability to stick anything into a System.out.print statement. However, is there any reason why you would want to use System.out.printf instead?   Also, should I avoid print calls like this in "real applications"?  It's probably better to  to print messages to the client's display using some kind of UI function, right?
