Hi, I found a nice and simple solution for plotting while working with vscode remote over ssh. Maybe it’s obvious or there is a simpler solution, but wanted to share it anyways: I connect an extra ssh session with X11 forwarding ssh -Y user@host and set the display env variable for the vscode rem…

Thanks! This is useful for my workflow.

I have the following error, but not sure if its display related, plots, or x11 issue julia> x = 1:10; y = rand(10); # These are the plotting data julia> plot(x, y) /home/affans/.julia/packages/GR/NSt7D/src/../deps/gr/bin/gksqt: error while loading shared libraries: libQt5Widgets.so.5: cannot open …

Plots + pyplot() also works fine in VSCode.

Using PowerShell, I ssh’d to my Ubuntu20.04 workstation from my Windows laptop with X11forwarding support on. xeyes runs and displays just fine. However, running the following in the REPL initially produced the same error as ‘affans’. using Plots x = 1:10; y = rand(10); # These are the plotting dat…
