Hi Everyone,

I would like to enable 3D Interaction for a model using Python. I know that in the scene, I can toggle the interaction by right-clicking on the model’s eye icon. However, I would like to create an on/off checkbox to control this functionality programmatically.

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your help!  
Best regards,  
John
