MATLAB Toolboxes

[t.momina]

Hi,

Does installation of basic PTB requires any advanced MATLAB toolboxes?

Thanks,
Momina

[mariokleiner]

No. Also it doesn't even require Matlab. It also works fine for almost all purposes with the free GNU/Octave (https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/) which is very easy to install on Linux or Windows, a bit more work on OSX.

Did run the brew upgrade and was told i am allready up to date.
Also, as pointed out I get the exact same issues when I install octave over Macports. in fact the two verison look and behave identically.

maybe your brews need updating?

did you run "brew update" before "brew upgrade"?

[tudorcb]

Yes,

here is some sample output. Now reading into this it looks like some font libraries are not present?
