TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'drawtype'

[trevorLevel]

Hello,
I have tried running this with multiple installations of Python, 3.7, 3.8, and 3.11. Every time I always get to the same point, where upon running mesh = mesher.mesh(image_stack), I get the error TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'drawtype'.

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong, or if this is a bug!

Hello, I had the same issue and solved it by downgrading matplotlib to 3.3.1

Hi, I had the same issue. Tried to downgrade matplotlib but got problems too. So I digged into the code and found what to change and where.

You just have to go to the dic.Mesher definition which is in meshUtilities.py. Then go to the line 233 where RectangleSelector() is called. There the third argument is drawtype='box'.
Now go to the definition of RectangleSelector() which is in widgets.py. At the line 3155 you'll find the init method of the RectangleSelector class. Here the 4th argument is *. I just changed this * by drawtype and everything works fine now.

If you use VS code, you can go to definition of an object with f12 (on my computer it works like that at least).

Hope it was clear enough.
