Hello, I have the same problem. have you solved this problem?

[belisards]

@chordx1206 unfortunately, not yet.

[sbrugman]

What happens if you upgrade ipywidgets? pip install -U ipywidgets (and restart the environment)

[matindra]

Same issue here. Anyone found the solution?

[hiraking]

I had the same problem on WSL Ubuntu and solved it as follows.

My ipywidgets version is 8.0.4 according to pip, but I noticed that the acutual imported version was 6.0.0. So I removed the older version of the package (which in my case existed under /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages) and that worked.

Hope this helps.
