Re: [spyder] Windows 8

[Pierre Raybaut]

Hi,

Actually Spyder has no direct relationship with the Operating System. It relies on libraries and Python itself which must support the OS on which they are executed.

Here, this is your Qt version which is outdated and does not support yet Windows 8, probably because the OS was not yet available when the library was designed. The solution is to upgrade the PyQt package (Python-Qt bindings library) that must be installed on your machine.

For example, I recently upgraded packages in the WinPython distribution to add support for Windows 8: PyQt was upgraded from v4.8.6 to v4.9.6. 

However, Spyder should be able to run on top of a PyQt version which does not support Windows 8. It's just that there is this annoying warning message in the console and that it looks ugly because Qt assumes that this is a Windows version prior to Windows XP!

Cheers

Hi

 I am a new user of Spyder and Python. I have made a little project and run into a question.

 I get this error "Qt: Untested Windows version 6.2 detected! " did Spyder not support windows 8 64bit?

Or there may be another problem?

Thanks

Merry Christmas to you all
