You can specify where ipython should output the plots: inline or by your matplotlib backend (qt, wx, gtk, ...). I am using ipython 0.13.1 with spyder 2.2.0dev and here I have the option in spyder to specify how the ipython console should handle the graphics: Tools > Preferences > IPython console > graphics backend. Seems that inline is the default. Switch to qt, automatic or whatever installed/wanted backend you want to use. I don't know if this feature is only available in the development version or not.
As a side note, you can also specify inline (or not) plotting of an ipython console when launching from the command line as follows: *ipython qtconsole pylab=inline* or i*python qtconsole pylab=qt* (for plotting in a separate window) Regards, David On 8 November 2012 23:35, David Nicholls <[email protected]> wrote: > The problem with the new setup is that (as I recall it from the last time > I tried) when you start with an IPython kernel (as distinct from an IPython > console), Matplotlib graphics that would otherwise open in a separate > window are now inline, which is really annoying.
