Function Documentation

_resolve_user_path()

str pyhelios.Visualizer._resolve_user_path ( str path )

protected

Resolve a user-provided path to an absolute path before working directory changes.

This ensures that user file paths are interpreted relative to their original working directory, not the temporary working directory used for asset discovery.

Parameters

path	User-provided file path (absolute or relative)

Returns

Absolute path resolved from the user's original working directory

_visualizer_working_directory()

pyhelios.Visualizer._visualizer_working_directory ( )

protected

Context manager that temporarily changes working directory for visualizer operations.

The C++ visualizer code expects to find assets at 'plugins/visualizer/' relative to the current working directory. This context manager ensures the working directory is set correctly during visualizer initialization and operations.

Note

This is required because the Helios C++ core prioritizes current working directory for asset resolution over environment variables.
