Hi Todd Thanks for the reply. I am aware many things are platform dependent, but I work on Windows and Ubuntu and I get the same results I described. I already found a solution to make the look consistent and nice (when I start the PR I will post the link to it) In the meantime, it would reall

Re: [spyder] Spyder Looks

I have already touched on some issues, but here are my thoughts in general on spyder's appearance: *Icons and Theming* As I have mentioned, I am strongly in favor of native appearance wherever possible. Qt is extremely good at this, and I think it makes for a much better experience overall. Pe

Re: [spyder] Re: Some preference problem

Yes I do see the '_' in other text editor on my computer. The reason why I want to get it displayed correctly is because when I write something like '__main__', I can't see the '_' character and it matters for me. Anyway, I got the '_' displayed correctly after I changed the font to "Consolas".

Thank you Adrian for checking! I just installed a fresh version of WinPython 3.4.2.4 64-bit, and it still wouldn't work. I guess this might be a Windows-specific issue. -Shawn On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 at 3:00:41 PM UTC-5, Adrian Klaver wrote: > > On 01/28/2015 11:10 AM, Yuxiang Wang wrote

Re: [spyder] Spyder defaults, widgets, plugins and Anaconda

One thought about the default setting: Would you think for IPython QtConsole, the Automatic figure would be better than the Inline? The reason for that is: 1) Matlab used a pop-out figure, which is what matplotlib originally set out to mimic; 2) For a scientific use, the interactive plotting is

Re: [spyder] Re: Seems like a bug (and really bothers me)

Guys, Got it fixed. I should be using "Qt" rather than "Automatic". Didn't know why it would fail via "Automatic" though, Shawn On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 at 4:59:12 PM UTC-5, Yuxiang Wang wrote: > > Thanks Adrian! I'll post one on WinPython to get a try. Thanks again! > > Shawn > > On Wedn

Re: [spyder] Spyder defaults, widgets, plugins and Anaconda

One more comment - should be using "Qt" rather than "Automatic". "Automatic" does not work when I try to close a figure currently in Windows for now (see https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/spyderlib/UyWJe_cbxr8 ). Shawn On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 at 4:56:29 PM UTC-5, Yuxian

Re: [spyder] Re: Some preference problem

Well, I don't know which font my other editors are using, but at least I don't have the display problem with the '_' character. This is interesting fact about 'DejaVu Sans Mono' font style. Seems like could be a coding problem when people designed it. Thanks for sharing. On Wednesday, January 2

[spyder] Changing backend of IPython console

Hi all, To no hijack Gonzalo's thread about Spyder defaults and widgets, I'd like to ask you here if you think changing the IPython Matplotlib backend from Inline to Automatic (or Qt, should be the same) is the best course of action. Of course, nothing is set into stone, so I don't have a pr
