I'm trying to run this example from Manim community documentation:
from manim import *
class HelloWorld(Scene):
def construct(self):
text = Text('Hello world').scale(3)
self.add(text)
For some reason I'm getting this error:
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'color'
I'm using the latest version of Manim community (0.14.0)
What am I doing wrong?
The full output is:
(Python3.9) C:\Users\User\IdeaProjects\GraphConnectivityDemo>manim -pql scene.py HelloWorld

You could try to upgrade manimpango via pip install -U manimpango. As a workaround, using Tex instead would also work as long as you have LaTeX installed.
