UsageError: Line magic function %%manim not found.

[Tho100]

I completed the installation:

pip.exe install manimlib
pip.exe install jupyter_manim

when I executed this code:

from manimlib.imports import *
import jupyter_manim
%%manim Shapes

class Shapes(Scene):

    def construct(self):
        circle = Circle()
        self.play(ShowCreation(circle))

The jupyter console displays this error: UsageError: Line magic function %%manim not found.

How do I fix it?

Windows 10

Visual Studio Code

Python 3.9

[krassowski]

%%manim needs to be placed as a first line of a cell. The error message you get suggests that you placed it as n-th line in the cell.

[Tho100]

I followed your solution:

%%manim Shapes
from manimlib.imports import *
import jupyter_manim

class Shapes(Scene):

    def construct(self):
        circle = Circle()
        self.play(ShowCreation(circle))

The same problem still occurs, I'm not sure if this is the problem with my code syntax or not but I thinks there's something missing I need to install, can you provide list of items I need to install?

[Tho100]

Is this a list of items I need to install in order to fix the error or you're pointing out you have the same problem occurred?

[BurkovBA]

Sorry about non-descriptive post, @Tho100.

I mean, I ran into the same problem and listed my configuration for reproducibility purposes.

[thorwhalen]

Same here.
On Macbook Pro, MacOS Monterey -- version 12.5.1.
