I just installed Anaconda and running Spyder I cannot find the Object Inspector. Hitting Ctrl+I has no effect and in the View/Panes menu there is no item Object Inspector.
I have seen videos and tutorials that show the Object Inspector. What is happening?
To do so, open Spyder's preferences, click on "Completion and linting" on the left hand side, and under the "Completion" tab, make the following changes: Ensure that "Enable code completion" is checked. Ensure that "Show completions on the fly" is checked. Ensure that "Enable code snippets" is checked.
Go to View/Panes and select Variable Explorer. Show activity on this post. Show activity on this post. You can go to view then in view click on window layout then in that click on reset to spyder default which will give you the default layout of spyder.
Restart your machine, in case the problem lies with a lingering process or another such issue. From the Anaconda Prompt/Terminal/command line (on Windows/Mac/Linux), run the command spyder --reset , which will restore Spyder's config files to their defaults, which solves a huge variety of Spyder issues.
The "Object Inspector" is now called "Help" (from Spyder version 3.0 onwards); see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/spyderlib/pF7KmSKDFXc . However, the Ctrl-I shortcut has not been changed, so I'm not sure what's happening with that.
go to preferences > Help and enable the Automatic connections for Editor and restart the Spyder
This worked for me!!
