Hi Bruno, thanks for testing the library and posting to this forum.

The error is caused by the wxPython version (2.8) not including the Property Editor:

  File "gui/tools/propeditor.py", line 17, in <module>
    import wx.propgrid as wxpg
ImportError: No module named propgrid

You need to install wxPython 2.9 or higher, 3.0 recommended.

There is a wxWidgets 3.0 package for recent ubuntu versions (it was relaced a few months ago), so you'll need to compile just wxPython.

Please see the following instruction guide with the steps (check the 3.0 part):

http://wiki.wxpython.org/CheckInstall#wxPython_3.0.0

Let me know if that works for you,

Best regards,
