Hi,  
I am installing vapor\_python in linux system.  
Can I produce animation or figure files (png, jpg, tiff or etc) in python using vapor\_python or vapor(GUI)?

Hello,  
Here’s a related discussion on [how to save an image](https://vapor.discourse.group/t/how-to-save-figures-by-python/310) while using the python API

As for animation, hope this [example](https://ncar.github.io/VaporDocumentationWebsite/pythonAPIReference/examples/animation_example.html) helps
