After installing Anaconda3 & PyCharm in new PC, I tried to test the same code as uploaded here

And I got a window like this.

enter image description here

But usually I use the plot window like this format (from google image search) enter image description here

I think the first view is useful for checking all of the plots, but I'm already used to the second version, separated plot figure from PyCharm console, and I can use the control panel.

So I want to use PyCharm as in the second picture. How can I change my PyCharm settings to use the second version plot figure (extra window)?

That's because PyCharm is opening it in Sciview. Go to Settings => search for Python Scientific. Uncheck the (only) box Show plots in toolwindows. Restart Pycharm. It should work like a charm ;)
