my name is Marcel and I am currently doing my Ph.D. in chemistry with focus on the crystallisation of cementious materials.
As I am totally new to evaluation of total scattering data I have tried reading some papers by Professor Billinge, Professor Proffen and Dr. Keen. In addition I have started the book "Underneath the Bragg Peaks".
All the materials take some time and thinking to get through but I think I am starting to get some kind of perspective on it.
Therefore I would like to start using pdfgui to refine some pdf data. Using the procedure with the py27 environment I unfortunately get the following error:

A bit of searching using google shows that there are people who had similar issues when installing matplotlib for example. Unfortunately I am new to Python and don't have much experience regarding programming.
Therefore I would like to ask if anybody had a similar issue or might know a solution to this error and might be willing to share it.
Best regards and thanks in advance
Marcel
