💬 Support & Discussions

Hi all, now I am using:

  • MNE version: 0.24.0
  • OS: Linux-5.4.0-77-generic-x86_64-with-debian-bullseye-sid
    I recently updated the package mne to version 0.22.10 to 0.24.0 and now I am getting the error, when i try to run stc.plot():

AttributeError: ‘vtkmodules.vtkRenderingUI.vtkGenericRenderWindowIn’ object has no attribute ‘initialize’

What could be the cause of the error?

Hello @Kirill, your PyVista and pyvistaqt are outdated.

We recommend to create a new environment from scratch when updating MNE-Python, to ensure one has the correct versions of all dependencies.

Best wishes,
Richard
