问题

在运行mayavi时会出现如下问题：

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:/Aworkspace/PycharmProjects/untitled/sss.py", line 36, in <module>
    s = mlab.mesh(x,y,z)

    raise ImportError(msg)
ImportError: Could not import backend for traitsui.  Make sure you
        have a suitable UI toolkit like PyQt/PySide or wxPython
        installed.

问题原因

在Python3.x环境下在安装mayavi时，想要运行成功，则需要PyQt、PySide或者wxPython。

据说在Python3.7环境下，PyQt5、wxPython和mayavi不兼容。

本人测试了，安装了PyQt5后运行代码还是会出现上面的错误，

而安装了wxPython则也会出现下面错误。

traits.trait_errors.TraitError: The '_position' trait of a MayaviViewer instance must be a
 tuple of the form: (a value of class 'int', a value of class 'int'), but a value of 
 wx.Point(900, 730) <class 'wx._core.Point'> was specified.

因此，本人想要安装PySide来解决上面问题。
