Receiving an error in Python 2.7.8 (IPython 2.2.0) when using code %matplotlib inline

[Brandon J]

When I use the code:

%matplotlib inline

I receive an error message saying "UsageError: Invalid GUI request u'inline', valid ones are:['osx','qt4', 'glut', 'gtk3', 'pyglet', 'wx','none', 'qt', None,'gtk','tk']

What gives?

I'm running Python 2.7.8 in Anaconda 2.1.0 on Windows 8 64-bit.

It sounds like you are running from a text terminal, not in the notebook
or from a qtconsole. The inline backend only works in those (graphical)
environments.

Try starting ipython with

ipython qtconsole
