cannot get eyeheight() working with vizconnect

[Jeff]

If the display is parented to another object in Vizconnect, then the link will override the viewpoint command in Vizard. From Vizconnect, you can add a post trans offset in the Offsets dialog for the PPT Tracker to adjust the height. Take a look at the Displays and Trackers tutorial for an example using offsets.

Thanks for the pointer Jeff.

To do it dynamically I ended up doing:

vizconnect.go('my_vizconnect.py')
gTracker = vizconnect.getTracker('head_tracker')
gLink = gTracker.getLink()
# now apply an offset to the height
gLink.postTrans([0,-0.25,0], target=viz.LINK_POS_OP)
