It does indeed `plt.get_backend()` returns "agg". Thanks for that hint. I just noticed, that I misread the README of PyPlot. If I do the following it works properly: julia> using PyCall # PyCall, not PyPlot julia> pygui(:qt) # :wx works too julia> using PyPlot julia> plot([1,2,3],[1,2,4]) # Displays plot window On Tuesday 02 December 2014 09:53:38 Michael Raskin wrote: > Haven't yet launched X since your last email, but have you tried > pygui(:wx)? With the above it's working fine in the cli. The only remaining issue is with the IJulia notebooks. Plots are only shown inline if I explicitly display the figure object. I would expect this to happen the same way as in IPython just after a call to plot, as advertized in [1].

But, for me plotting works fine in Python with qt4, and wx: >>> import matplotlib >>> matplotlib.use("Qt4Agg") # Or "WXAgg" >>> import matplotlib.pylab as plt >>> plt.plot([1,2,3],[1,2,4]) >>> plt.show() # Shows the plot window I'll take a closer look at it later.
