I have started using VS Code for work instead of Anaconda and there are some weird observations which I am not able to figure out.
If I try to execute some code in a cell in the interactive window, many-a-times, only output remains available and the input code automatically gets hidden. For eg. I type the following and execute:-
And this is what I see at the window:-
Similarly, there are some variables which I have already defined but they don't show up in the Jupyer:Variables tab. For eg. there is a variable _link_name_to_index which is not visible in the tab as shown below:-
However, when I execute the same in the window, I can see the values of the dictionary as expected:-
Maybe it is just a matter of some settings, but I still couldn't find out which one. Also, I know I have put a lot of images, because it is not a code doubt as such, rather more of a tool doubt. I have taken only one particular example here, but I face this issue often. I am using VS Code version 1.75.0 in Ubuntu 20.04, using Python 3.9.12 in a virtual environment, if it helps.
This is a bug in the latest Version of VSCode (1.75). It is tracked in this issue. For now, the only option seems to be downgrading to v1.74.x
I am using Python 3.8. I have a file test.py. If I change any code in it then it shows output as it’s previous code. I think it recalls the previous memory. How to get rid of it ? I think I have to clear all memory before every Run. I restarted the computer but couldn’t solve this problem.
If you use Spyder IDE, you may choose "Preferences" in "Tools" columns, then click on the "Remove all variables before execution" in "Run".
I installed Anaconda 3 and wanted to execute python from the shell. It returned that it's either written wrong or does not exist. Apparently, I have to add a path to the environmentle variable.
Can someone tell how to do this?
Environment: Windows 10, 64 bit and python 3.7
Ps: I know the web is full with that but I am notoriously afraid to make a mistake. And I did not find an exact entry for my environment. Thanks in advance.
Best Daniel
Windows:
search for -->Edit the system environment variables
In Advanced tab, click Environment variabless
In System variables, Select PATH and click edit. Now Click new, ADD YOU PATH.
Click Apply and close.
Now, check in command prompt
I have been using Pycharm for years and have never had any problem. However, after my most recent PyCharm update I can no longer configure the interpreter.
Also each time I create a new project it creates a vent directory under my project. When I go to File/Default Settings/Project Interpreter, I am provided with new options.
In this window it allows you to configure a virtual environment, the conda environment, and the system interpreter. I am assuming that I should configure the system interpreter. From there I point PyCharm to the interpreter on my Mac at /usr/local/Cellar/python3/3.6.3/bin/python3 and hit OK.
It then takes me back to the main window where it shows the path in the project interpreter. At this point I hit apply and get a message:
Cannot Save Settings please use a different SDK name
It doesn't matter which interpreter I choose, I get the same message. Has anyone else come up with the same problem and how do I fix this?
Interestingly my old projects still work correctly.
I had the same problem while setting up the virtual environment for my project and no matter if I create a new virtual environment or select an existing one, I get the warning:
"Cannot Save Settings please use a different SDK name"
Finally I found the solution:
Click on the project interpreter dropdown and select show all.... There you might be having multiple virtual environments with same name. Now here is the conflict you need to fix manually by renaming them so every item has the unique name.
I ran into this issue when trying to get docker up and running with Pycharm 2018.1 and using the container's Interpreter. I would get the error below.
"Cannot Save Settings please use a different SDK name"
The issue I had was due to having multiple python interpreters of the same name.
Under Pycharm || Preferences || Project Interpreter
Click "show all" within the Project Interpreter dropdown and then delete any / all interpreters that you don't need.
How fix this in Windows 10:
close Pycharm .
delete this file: C:\Users\<username>\.PyCharmCE2018.3\config\options\jdk.table.xml
open Pycahrm again and load all python interceptors again.
Jon; I too noticed the difference in the latest version of PyCharm. It seems that it now has an affinity for the latest tool 'venv'. When you create an interpreter - that is what you get.
You can still create a virtualenv manually and point it there instead. I haven't looked into pointing it to a base python-bin because (frankly) you shouldn't generally do it.
My advice (and my proposed answer) is to embrace the change and let it create a 'venv' for you. From there, do all of your installs by "alt-F12". That will open a console with your virtual environment activate -- so your PIP installs into the virtual environment.
Once I began using virtual environments, I never looked back. It has made life much easier in the python world. Pycharm seems to know this as well and is trying to really encourage you to do the right thing.

This may be a known issue of PyCharm and using the method of the accepted answer may not resolve it. Please see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-27251.
You can close Pycharm and remove jdk.table.xml file from ~/Library/Preferences/.PyCharm2018.1/options directory (Mac version), then start PyCharm again.
Warning: By doing this, all your existing setup of python interpreters will be erased and you need to re-setup them again.
I had same error:
I deleted all invalid project interpreters ( they are red)
then I did https://stackoverflow.com/a/60583928/3842788
You cannot have 2 or more virtual environments with same name. Even if you have projects with same name stored at 2 different places, please give unique name to its venv. This will solve your problem.
To check all the virtual environments:
Go to File >> Settings >> Project: your_project_name >> Project Interpreter
And rename the venv name.
Go to Project > Project Interpreter > Select the dropdown menu > "Show All".
For me, there were several Python environments, two of which were red with an tag. Remove the envs that are red / have an tag, select the remaining valid one, and re-apply settings.
In my case, I moved my project to a different location and PyCharm started complaining about Cannot Save Settings please use a different SDK name. At the top of the main editor, it asks me to Configure Project Interpreter. I clicked it, and then ...
My solution
Remove all existing interpreters that are marked as invalid in the preference.
Select the interpreter in the moved venv subfolder in my project.
Without doing both, I kept getting the same "SDK name" error. It seemed that the project thinks that it already has an interpreter called "python.exe", if you don't actively remove all "invalid" ones.
I solved this issue by cleaning the Pycharm memory cache
I found the GUI version of the GNOME3 configuration but I'm interested in accessing the settings in a raw file and editing them. For example, hide menu bar, hide the bottom task bar, turn off screen save etc... in a file rather than the built in tool.
Anyone know where I can find the file to edit?
At first you have to know that Gnome3 uses the dconf-System to save the program settings. The dconf-System is based on a binary database, so how to change the settings?
At first you have to install the dconf-tools package:
apt-get install dconf-tools
Then you can run the editor:
dconf-editor
Or you can use the command gsettings to modify the settings:
gesettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences \ default-folder-viewer 'list-view'
This example changes the view of nautilus to list by default.
You can write your own shell-script based on the gsettings command, which is an approach to your problem.
Gnome also starts a lot of programs automatically and you can modify this as well by editing the following file:
~/.config/autostart/*.desktop
I hope this helps :-)
