[Qgis-user] Using/visualizing 3D data (Z values)

[David Fawcett]

Thank you very much for your help.  Indeed, it was the PATH/PYTHONPATH issue.

I think that when I installed QGIS last time, I was in a rush and
didn't think that I would need the Python support.  I decided to
reinstall QGIS and then I found the same README.

I am excited to play with visvis.

David.
