Inky Impression 7.3 - Trouble Connecting thr Virtual Env ot Thonny

Support
1

Hi a Inexperanced Raspberry Pi user here.

have just got a Inky Impression 7.3” and Pi Zero 2 W. I have followed the getting started intructions.

I have got it to the point I can run the examples in terminal but now got stuck trying to link Thonny to the Virtual Enviroment. So I can start writing some bespoke code.

I am following the instructions here but I can’t find where the command

source ~/.virtualenvs/pimoroni/bin/activate

has put the virtual enviroment. It is not in the user Pimoroni folder. Any help would be appreciated.

Many Thanks

Ian

Hah found it

The problem is that it was hidden. For other Noobs follow the instuctions here and after you have asked to click on the button with 3 dots. Right click teh open file window and select show hidden files.

.Virtualenvs is now shown so just follow the path

Cheers

Ian
