Hi:
I have been using Spyder for a while now, and I wanted to install the terminal plug-in, and to my surprise, after installation it did not show up in the View/Panes menu. I tried 
conda install spyder-terminal -c conda-forge 
conda create -n spyder-env -c conda-forge python=3.10 spyder spyder-terminal
Nothing seems to work. I tried these on Windows 11 and Ubuntu
Any help will be appreciated

Hi,
My situation is the same. When I start Spyder from Powershell, the following error appearing:
ImportError: cannot import name 'QStylePalette' from 'spyder.utils.palette'

QStylePalette does not exist in ...\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\spyder\utils\palette.py

If I commented out the "from spyder.utils.palette import QStylePalette" in the terminalgui.py, 
many new problem appears.

My Spyder version is: 6.0.7

Python 3.13.5 64-bit | Qt 5.15.2 | PyQt5 5.15.10
Windows 10 (AMD64)


Anybody help? Please...

Hi,

So the thing is that the spyder-terminal plugin it is not yet compatible with Spyder 6. So even when you install it, it will fail to load and you will not see it in the View > Panes menu. There are a couple of related issues:  Compatibility with Spyder 6 · Issue #345 · spyder-ide/spyder-terminal , Version for spyder 6 · Issue #350 · spyder-ide/spyder-terminal and  Cannot see spyder terminal in Win10/ conda environment · Issue #354 · spyder-ide/spyder-terminal

Hopefully the info above helps you to better understand the current state of the plugin.

Best regards,

Daniel
