Hi. I'm using sage-10.2 with linux (slint-15.0 based on slackware 15.0) on the console. When I run p=plot(x^2); p there is no graphics on the screen, just the line Launched png viewer for Graphics object consisting of 1 graphics primitive Is something missing in my configuration ? Maybe : WorksForMe(TM) on Debian testing installed from source. How did you obtain your installation ? Moreover, in help(plot), the command sphinx_plot is often used but on my machine I obtain NameError: name 'sphinx_plot' is not defined Googling sagemath sphinx_plot leads you to the General conventions <https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/developer/coding_basics.html> chapter of the Sage developer Guide <https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/developer/index.html>, where it appears that this function is part of the Sphinx system of documentation (especially the mechanisms extracting viewable/printable documentation from Python docstrings). This function appears to trigger the output of (some relevant form of) graphics in the desired documentation. Since help gives you a *text* form of the docstring, which does not have any useful form of graphics, what you get in the output is the (unexecuted) function call. A complete explanation probably exists in the Sphinx documentation, which I’m currently too lazy to chase on the ‘Net… HTH, Thanks for help. -- Philippe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
