BUG-Slider multi-selection is broken when running as root

[gbritoda]

Description While running TaiPy on WSL (Ubuntu), the Slider does not work with Multi Selection when it is run as root. Works fine with regular user

How to reproduce That is my main.py file. Run it with python3 main.py then sudo python3 main.py

The sliders also behave differently. I've also seen a similar behaviour with the menu control but haven't documented it yet.

from taipy.gui import Gui

selection = ["3","5"]

page = """
Multiple selection

<|{selection}|slider|lov=1;2;3;4;5;6;7;8;9;10|>

"""

Gui(page).run()

Expected behavior Expected to have the multiple sliders, even when running as root. But that doesn't seem to happen

Runtime environment Taipy:

taipy @ git+https://github.com/Avaiga/taipy.git@7518e798d48289a9017faa93b10002361f946490

• Do you have any error messages in the Python console?

• Do you have any error messages in the client console (F12)?

• Could you try setting extended_status to True in the run()?

[gbritoda]

Ran with extended_status=True but nothing is different. python only shows this

And the console is empty

python and sudo python may be 2 different Python executables. The Python system could have installed an older version of Taipy. Can you test it?

[gbritoda]

You are absolutely right! When doing sudo python3 -m pip freeze | grep taipy I get taipy 2.4.0!

So I assume this feature is present only on 3.0.0?

Sorry about this, will close the ticket
