Code tree in Spyder 5?

[Derek]

I recently upgraded to Syder 5 and am now unable to see / access the expandable code "tree" (outline) that was working in the previous version.

This is all I can see (image below, showing what I see for a typical Django models file) - what is needed to create/activate the code tree?

Thanks

Hello Derek,

the `Expand all` button does only expand if there are sub items of an tree item. That isn't the case in your screenshot.

If the file does contain any classes, functions, code cells or code blocks, this is a bug. It could relate to this Issue on github.

I would be interested in whether code cells (created by `#%%`) or code blocks (created by `# -----`) are shown in the outline in case you add them.

Kind regards

Hi

I did not show the main editing window with the actual code. But yes, it's a normal Python file (in this case containing Django models - classes - for an app). I use the # --- notation a lot to help ID sections of code but that does not appear for any Python files I work on.

I looked at issue 14871 but that seems very specific to __init__.py files whereas I experience this for every file.

Any ideas on what else to try?

Thanks

Derek

Do you have the `Show special comments` checkbox ticked?

I actually had the problem in some other files too but initially it only occured in some `__init__.py` files. If you think you have a different issue it would be great if you filed a new issue at spyder repository on github.

Hi

WRT "Do you have the `Show special comments` checkbox ticked?" - I cannot find that set of options anywhere in my Spyder setup - what is the menu path to access that screen?

Thanks.

I am sorry. The checkbox is in the popup that pops up when the right mouse button is clicked on the outline widget.

Kind regards

OK, I see it in the "hamburger" menu for that panel.  Yes, it was checked.

i did report the problem and apparently it is fixed in the 5.0.2 release - https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/issues/15640
