Intellisense in available in Python IDLE 2.5 or not.How can I get that.If it is not available in Python IDLE how can I get Python win for arcgis 10. Thanks
IDLE doesn't really have intellisense. If you start creating a Python script and only use the line:
import arcpy
Now if you run your code from IDE, you will be able to get some intellisense regarding arcpy, for instance:
mxd = arcpy.
I will then get info about which methods are available (but it is slow). However, if I finish my code to refer to a map document and then want to use the reference to the map document it will not provide the available methods regarding the map document. But, if I run the code again after referencing a map document I can then get "intellisense" for the mxd variable.
Obviously, this will not be acceptable. There are other IDE's out there such as PythonWin, Wing and PyScripter to name a few. PythonWin is not installed by default, see this thread about the location of the installers for it. You can download PyScripter from here.
