| Dear Karl,
Thanks a lot. I will try it tomorrow in local time. Meanwhile, would you pls give more details about how to find out if this is the issue? It is noteworthy that the security of Catalina is very strict that the root directory is no longer writable. So the default install work report error. I had to install either in my home directory or in /Applications. I would prefer the latter since it can be accessed by all users. Yet neither works out so far.

Looking over some remarks from a search of anaconda and catalina, it would be interesting to know whether the PyQt5 package was found at all or if there was an issue with importing it. With the new sandboxing for security, it might be that PyQt5 was not installed in a location where python3 would be able to automatically find it, which might be worked-around by adding the path to the environment variable PYTHONPATH before starting python3 (or pyferret).
Kind regards, Karl
I have not tested at all with this brand-new version of Mac OS X. Many third-party vendors (including Adobe) are recommending holding off on upgrading as their software does not yet work under Catalina. So I am not surprised to hear there are problems with PyQt (probably Qt) and Catalina.
I upgraded my Mac and found I need to reinstall miniconda and pyferret. But after that, the figure window cannot be opened with the following message:
grdelWindowCreate: error when calling createWindow in pyferret.graphbind: The PQ viewers requires PyQt5 or PyQt4
I checked that pyqt5 is installed. Any solution for that?
Thanks,
Tony
