Problems with quickstart example in ubuntu 22.04. It works, but I do not get the figures

[ricguerr]

Dear all:

I am getting myself familiar with pyExtremes and I am trying to run the quickstart example.
I have installed pyExtremes with "pip install pyextremes[full]" in a clean virtual environment in my ubuntu 22.04 machine. pip installs several dependencies, as shown:

contourpy==1.0.7
cycler==0.11.0
emcee==3.1.4
fonttools==4.39.3
kiwisolver==1.4.4
matplotlib==3.7.1
numpy==1.24.3
packaging==23.1
pandas==2.0.1
Pillow==9.5.0
pyextremes==2.3.0
pyparsing==3.0.9
python-dateutil==2.8.2
pytz==2023.3
scipy==1.10.1
six==1.16.0
tqdm==4.65.0
tzdata==2023.3

I can run the example, and it works properly because I can print the summary. But I am not getting the figures.

¿Can some one explain me what is the problem?. I thought that I was missing graphics libraries, so I also installed PyQt5 with pip, but after that I am still having the same problem

Thank you for your advice

I solved partially the problem adding plt.show() at the end of
def plot_diagnostic( in extremes.py
and
def plot_extremes( in eva.py

although with a blocking behaviour. plt.show(blocking=False) do not works as creates an empty figure-

But I imagine this is not a solution.

¿Which is the suggested way to run pyExtremes? Inside a Jupyter Notebooks?

I have missinterpretated a previos question thinking that in that question the problem was about the threshold limit. It was similar to mine. But in my case, the trick with main did not worked

You should look at return types for those functions - those are matplotlib figures and axes. If you are in non-interactive environment, then you should save those figures to a file and then explicitly close the figure instance. I recommend reading this https://matplotlib.org/stable/users/explain/interactive.html
