spyder：从现有目录创建新项目

Question

I'm encountering a problem using spyder (I'm novice):

1. Projects --> New Project...
2. The project form appears
3. I select "Existing directory"

I can't edit both Project name and Location

To be sure of the issue I've re-install conda and update all the packages. Currently I'm using the following versions:

• conda: 4.8.3
• spyder: 4.1.2
• spyder-kernels: 1.9.0

I've tried also to create new conda venv but I got the same problem.

I'm installed conda on NeonKde a linux distribution ubuntu based (18.04) kerner: 5.3.0-46-generic

Here i've provided a screenshot: New project dialog form

Answer 1

I tried it on Spyder 4.0.1. Spyder doesn't allow naming a project in existing directory because it does not do anything. I think because this functionality is for creating a new folder path if you don't want to use current directory. So if you want to create a new project(folder), choose New Directory>Project Name or simply try opening a new file from File options.
