Hi, I have recently installed Python 32/64bit from Python.org and then I proceeded to install bumpy, scipy, matplotlib and igraph on it. But the Matplotlib does not show the plots even if it opens a Figure window. Here is a summary of what I had done in my installation: ----- I first did a "clean install" by following the instructions at (with an idea to reinstall Matplotlib and see if the rror repeats): http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#clean-install ----- So now my python does not have matplotlib:
