Is it possible to control Webots from external Python IDE (like pyCharm) ? I would appreciate if there is an example showing how to do so and location of modules to be added. Thanks

If I understand well, you would like to use PyCharm to create and debug Webots controllers, right? On which OS (I recently have issues with this on Windows)? – FabienRohrer Feb 21 '19 at 08:12

You are correct @FabienRohrer. I am working on Windows and I hope to see a short example of external python script for moving a model and if possible getting images from the scene. Thanks a lot – wbadry Feb 22 '19 at 00:33

Did you thought about implementing a TCP/IP connection between your project and a Webots Supervior controller? – FabienRohrer Feb 25 '19 at 11:37

Yes, there is some new documentation on how to run Webots robot controllers within PyCharm here.
