如何使用 PyPlot 和 Julia 在 Atom/Juno 中自动显示交互式绘图

Question

I'm using Atom/Juno as IDE for my Julia programming. I use PyPlot for graphical representation of plots however I noticed two important aspects (I'm migrating from MATLAB)

1- figures do not appear automatically after running julia scripts but only after typing PyPlot.display_figs() in the REPL .

2- figures displayed in Atom are not interactive.

On the contrary, if I open Julia REPL from terminal and I run the same code an interactive window appears (only after typing PyPlot.display_figs() ). Can I use Atom and have interactive plots to appear automatically at the end of each script without everytime using the REPL ?

Answer 1

You have two options:

1. Disable in built Atom plot Pane
2. Use interactive plotting backend (plotlyjs could be the best option)

Ad.1.

Go in Atom to Seetings->Packages->Julia Client->UI Options and disable the "Enable plot pane" option. Restart Atom.

Ad.2.

With the "Enable plot pane" turned on try running this code:

using Plots
plotlyjs()
Plots.plot(sin.(0:0.1:7))
