module 'matplotlib.cbook' has no attribute 'iterable'

[NicoRomeo]

Hi!
I've been trying to use the multinet method visualize_network(style="diagonal") with python 3.8.5, matplotlib 3.3.1, networkx 2.5.

I always end up getting this error:

  File "C:\Anaconda3\envs\multilayer\lib\site-packages\py3plex\visualization\drawing_machinery.py", line 537, in draw_networkx_edges
    if not cb.iterable(width):

AttributeError: module 'matplotlib.cbook' has no attribute 'iterable'

Is this something with my build, or is this a call to a deprecated matplotlib module? style="hairball" works fine.

Thanks a bunch!

Hello @NicoRomeo , thanks for pointing this out.
It seems there exists a workaround related to matplotlib ->
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63198347/attributeerror-module-matplotlib-cbook-has-no-attribute-iterable
does that solve it?

However, I'll have a look whether I can rewrite this part of the code to bypass the iterable as such, this might take a day or two, it seems it got deprecated in the newer versions and breaks backwards compatibility.

Hey, I've overcome this checking with vanilla python, can you check v0.77 (just pushed) if it works fine now?
Thanks

Hey, I'm closing this issue, as the new version 0.9 does not have the bug anymore.
