Description

Hello everyone,

due to some rendering issues with 3dbarplot in matplotlib I wanted to try plotting with mayavi. First I tried to install it via pip install mayavi. Then I downloaded the zipped package on the mayavi website and started setup.py.

Both ways finaly produced an error:
...
copying tvtk\pyface\ui\wx__init__.py -> build\lib.win32-2.7\tvtk\pyface\ui\wx
running build_ext
customize MSVCCompiler
customize MSVCCompiler using build_ext
building 'tvtk.array_ext' extension
compiling C sources
error: [Error 2] Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden
...

Is there anything missing in the tvtk-sourcecode? I also tried to install tvtk only, but I can't find a download website.

I also made sure that all other required packages are alreadyx installed.

Running Python 2,7 on Windows 7, with VTK 7.0. And I am a Python newbie (with bad english :-))

Thanks in advance.
