Hi! I have a view of a 2-d complex array that I would like to view as a 2-d float array. This works OK:
>>> np.ones((2, 4), complex).view(float) array([[ 1., 0., 1., 0., 1., 0., 1., 0.], [ 1., 0., 1., 0., 1., 0., 1., 0.]]) but this doesn't: >>> np.ones((2, 4), complex)[:, :2].view(float) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ValueError: new type not compatible with array. >>> np.__version__ '1.9.0' and I don't understand why. When looking at the memory layout, I think it should be possible.
