Installation for Python2 usersΒΆ

Fusion requires Python3 to run, but as long as you have Navigator installed it’s easy to work in both Python3 and Python2.

After installing Navigator but before using Fusion, create and activate a new Python3 environment using Navigator.

In order to use Fusion as a Python2 user:

  1. Follow the steps in Starting Navigator, but stop at step 2–before you click the Try Anaconda Fusion button.

  2. Create a Python3 environment.

  3. Open Navigator.

  4. Click the Environments tab.

  5. Click the Create button.

  6. In the dialog box, type a descriptive name like Python3.

  7. Click the Python list and select Python version 3.

  8. At the bottom of the dialog box, click the Create button.

  9. Go back to the Navigator Home tab.

  10. Activate the new Python3 environment.

  11. At the top of the screen click the Applications on list and select the environment you created in step 8.

  12. In the Anaconda Fusion pane of the Navigator Home tab, click the Try button.

    NOTE: For more help using Navigator, see User guide.

  13. On the Navigator Home tab, under Anaconda Fusion, click the Launch button.
