Failed to load jpeg

[mhead10]

Hello,

I'm trying to simply import a .jpeg and then .wrl file from solidworks, however I've not been successful with either.

I saved an arbitrary jpeg (lake.jpeg) in the same folder as my python program (cube_test). I run the test script with the following code to import the picture:


import viz
viz.go()
background=viz.addChild('lake.jpeg')

I've also tried 'lake.jpg', as well as trying a .wrl file from solidworks. However, I alway get and error, like the following:

ERROR: Failed to load 'lake.jpeg'

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks ahead of time for any help!

To load an image, use the viz.addTexture command instead of viz.addChild:

texture = viz.addTexture('lake.jpg')

Thank you for your help! I knew it was something silly!
