noob: Pythonxy vs Spyder and startup questions/confusion

psoriasis — 2013-05-17T04:19:06

So I've installed pythonxy and there's a shortcut to pythonxy that
brings up a "Python(x,y) Home" window that I really don't understand
what it's for.(?)  It looks like some sort of option gui.  I'm not
sure where the doc on this window is.

To actually "do" python, I end up opening up Spyder directly (from its
installed shortcut in my Windows Start/programs list).  I don't know
if that's the right thing to do (?)
It then does a bunch of importing.  I think it uses the ...\\xy
\startups\default.py script to do the importing but I'm not sure(?)
and I don't know how I would find out(?)

BTW, what's the best way, in spyder, to find out what modules have
been imported?

Sylvain Corlay — 2013-05-15T15:30:55

Hello, do you guys plan to update cvxopt in 2.7.4.0? 
The last version (1.1.6) corrects some compatibility issues with numpy,

gl2ps option didn't turn on

Anatoly Belanovsky — 2013-05-05T12:13:54

Hi,

I saw here the post about gl2ps, there was written that export to eps from 
mayavi was enabled. Unfortunately I can't save my scene to.eps file. How 
can I fix it?

Re: Winpdb doesn't launch (new full install)

psoriasis — 2013-04-30T19:03:16

Nevermind.  Apparently it wasn't installed.  As I can't imagine I unchecked 
it (why would I), I guess it's not installed by default.

Running on win xp sp3 32 bit with the latest full install.  Pressing F7 
does nothing (is there another way?).  I don't see any "winbdp" item in the 
python(x,y) group (on the start menu) and apparently there is no file name 
with "winpdb" in it on my drives.

Hello,

I'm new in mayavi. Is there any way to export my scene from mayavi to x3d 
format? Because when I'm exporting it to the .obj file and then put to the 
blender it looses all colors.

Re: Build Process for plugins [was Re: New version of Python(x,y)]

Gabi Davar — 2013-04-07T18:00:59

Numpy is updated for quite some time:
http://pythonxy.googlecode.com/files/numpy-1.7.0-1_py27.exe

Matplotlib is not updated due to 
http://matplotlib.org/1.2.1/users/whats_new.html#known-issues-in-the-matplotlib-1-2-release . 
I need time to investigate this.

The list of pending updates can be found at 
https://code.google.com/p/pythonxy/issues/list .

Although updating the packages has been simplified recently it is not yet 
buildbot ready. As always - lack of time.

Build Process for plugins [was Re: New version of Python(x,y)]

Tim Michelsen — 2013-04-06T11:22:33

I wonder, if we could optimise the process of providing up-to-date plugins.

Example:
In current PythonXY (acc. to site StandardPlugins):

* Matplotlib 1.1.1 
* NumPy 1.6.2

Upstream is at

* Matplotlib 1.2.1 
* NumPy 1.7.0

https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/matplotlib/matplotlib/matplotlib-1.2.1/matplotlib-1.2.1.win32-py2.7.exe
http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.7.0/numpy-1.7.0-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download

So due to the accelerated pace of the (many) plugins we have, we are
always running out sync with upstream.
It is not nice to always have new issues like "update this and that lib".
Especially the base libs for todays computing like pandas are really
releasing fast.

Maybe we could have a buildbot or something similar?

http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/current/manual/introduction.html

Just some ideas.

Kind regards,
Timmie

Awesome work

Thanks for Python(x,y). I've converted at least 5 people I work with from 
Matlab to python due to this distro. It's a strong weapon for python. Keep 
up the great work! Python(x,y) is perfect IMO.

Launching IPython Qt Console causes python.exe to stop working.

Alejandro Villegas — 2013-04-03T01:31:40

I have installed python(x,y) in Windows 8 Pro 64bit as an alternative to 
Matlab to perform engineering calculations, still I am a newbie when it 
comes to python language and all the installations packages.
Every time I try to open IPython Qt Console from the application launcher 
(from python(x,y) icon on desktop), an error message pops up notifying 
python.exe has stopped working. It happens also when the IPython Qt console 
is launched form the windows start menu using its own icon.
Does someone have an idea what's going on? Please refer to the attach 
picture to see an screenshot of what happen when the application is 
launched.

Hi,

This is not the best place for such questions. Try StackOverflow<http://www.stackoverflow.com> -
