Automatically advance to the next line after F9

[Anh Le]

Coming from RStudio, I'm familiar with the behavior of the cursor automatically moving to the next line. I think this makes sense for data analysis code. Does Spyder have something similar? If not, is there a reason for this implementation?

Have you tried to use shift + enter to progress through code cells? It looks like:

# %%

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# %%

fig, axs = plt.subplots()

fig.savefig('mpl_tiff.tif', dpi=300)

And you can use shift + enter to run the current cell, and in the mean time the cursor will be at the next cell.

I don't know how much this helps, but sounds like an interesting feature to you if you haven't tried it yet!

I'm aware of the code cell, but I was hopeful that there is a way to auto-advance without this since I want to maintain a pure Python script (that can be run with python file.py in the terminal), instead of something specific to an IDE.

Hi,

Cells in Spyder are defined by comments that start with this format:

    #%%

so there's nothing that Spdyer-specific about them, and so you can run Python files on a terminal without any problems-

You can think of them as headers for different sections for your file (e.g. load data, process data and run analysis).


Cheers,
Carlos
