Hello all,
I have issues running pyFoamPlotWatcher.py on macOS. (installed thru pip) Code:
gnuplot> set terminal aqua
gnuplot> set terminal aqua
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal x11 noraise noenhanced
gnuplot> set terminal x11 noraise noenhanced
line 0: line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal x11 title "pyFoam: Bounded variables"
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal x11 title "pyFoam: Continuity"
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal aqua
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal x11 noraise noenhanced
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
gnuplot> set terminal x11 title "pyFoam: Residuals"
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list
However brew install gnuplot --with-qt or --with-x11 is now deprecated. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...11-not-working Is there any solution to get PyFoam supported on macOS? The author uses mercurial for source code and I don't even know how to submit an issue! Thanks in advance. |

I don't have access to an up to date Mac anymore so I can only guess There is a setting that allows specifying the terminal to be used in Gnuplot. So it might be fixed by putting Code:
[Plotting] gnuplot_terminal: x11 into a file ~/.pyFoam/pyfoamrc and replace x11 with whatever is now the default terminal to use in Gnuplot on a Mac

I guess this will be a simple fix, by setting the terminal to qt if the system is macOS, but I'm not a pro in python. |

Go to the file /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyFoam/Basics/GnuplotTimelines.py line 16. Extend the variable terms with the terminal qt Code:
terms=["x11","wxt","caca","dumb","qt"] Side note: the reason why PyFoam has a list of valid terminals is to prevent people from specifying a terminal "png" and ending up with an unusable terminal PS: I think terminal "dumb" is really cool

if uname()[0]=="Darwin":
terms.append("qt")
return terms
I still got some error messages Code:

Aqua was this: https://sourceforge.net/projects/aquaterm/ That used to be "standard" for gnuplot on Mac OS X if you didn't use X11 I must check. I think I gave "aqua" a special treatment on darwin so that it used x11 if X11 was started (much faster) and otherwise fell back to aqua

Thanks to your discussion with gschaider, I've found the final solution by adopting only a few changes to the file 'GnuplotTimelines.py' using qt.
Here is the solution. What you need to do is just a few modifications for the terms marked red: Code:
def __init__(self,
timelines,
custom,
terminal="qt",
showWindow=True,
quiet=False,
registry=None):
GeneralPlotTimelines.__init__(self,timelines,custom,showWindow=showWindow,registry=registry)
Gnuplot.__init__(self, persist=self.spec.persist, quiet=quiet)
self.itemlist=[]
self.terminal="qt"
