Spyder missing Object Inspector

Soldalma picture Soldalma · Nov 17, 2016 · Viewed 39.6k times · Source

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?

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.
