I am trying to use VTK from python. I tried to find and could not realy find anything on the web which can be used for documentation. I tried looking at the c++ documentation but the methods are very different.

Thanks a lot

You could see the python examples at VTK's wiki. There is another resource by going to the official nightly documentation and looking for a particular class; in the section examples for many (not all) classes you can find implementations in python (also in c++ and tcl). A third option is to go to the source folder of your last downloaded release of VTK; look for the folder "Examples", there you will also find different VTK implementations in python (besides C++ and tcl)
