How to make it not print on multiple lines?

[keldLundgaard]

I really like the promise of this library, but I can't seem to make it work as I would like. How can I make it not print several lines? I just want one progress bar for the full training run.

I am adding this to Keras callbacks:
TQDMCallback() # I can add leave_inner=False, leave_outer=False with seemingly no effect.

Here is an example of the output in my Jupyter notebook when I do model.fit(...). Tqdm works fine, i.e. I can do a loop and have a progress bar that displays the progress on a single line.

TQDMNotebookCallback looks the best in Jupyter, although you can use the other callback. TQDMCallback uses a lot of control characters to add and remove lines, which can look funky in jupyter but looks good if you're running on the command line. The code to delete old lines probably doesn't look right in Jupyter without TQDMNotebookCallback.

Is there some reason you want the text progress bars instead of the widget even though you are in Jupyter?

[keldLundgaard]

A couple of reasons. First, for whatever reason, the widgets won't show in my notebook. I get the following error message, and can't seem to get the remedies that are suggested online to work. I don't think this has anything to do with keras-tqdm though.

Widget Javascript not detected. It may not be installed or enabled properly.

Second, I like how concise the text-based tqdm loading bars look. The notebook tqdm loading bar has a lower information density, i.e. take up more lines for the same information. I haven't had any problems with normal text-based tqdm in notebooks for for-loops.

However, irrespective of my preference to text-based versus widget, the text-based bars should work as tqdm loading bars, right?

Thanks again for creating this.
