Can't create plot from the debug console

[kilianjn]

Hey!

With the new update a new problem got introduced as described in the following thread regarding the Python version https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python/issues/23649

Since then matplotlib does not work anymore when calling e.g. plt.imshow() from the debug console . An empty window opens without an image inside and it cant be closed either. Only a full stop of the debugger closes it. When calling the same function from the script everything works fine.

I'm encountering the same issue. But if I lower matplotlib version from 3.9 to 3.8 (3.8.4 to be precise) in my conda environment, then the problem has disappeared, at least for me.
