Hi,

The Vizard network commands use a datagram socket on port 4950 to communicate. Sending the string "hello" will result in the following character sequence being sent:

"\x00\x00\x00\x00,s\x00\x00hello\x00\x00\x00"

Note that "\x00" is the hex value 0x00. I have never tried communicating with Vizard from another application using this method. However, if you follow the above protocol I don't see why it would not work. Let me know if you are having any problems with this.

If you have not already invested a lot of effort in your Delphi UI, you might want to consider directly embedding Vizard within a GUI application made with python. We have a few samples of embedding the Vizard render window inside of a wxPython GUI.

Currently there is no built-in method of removing the border of the render window. I'll look into a work around for this in the meantime.
