alive_bar not working properly on PyCharm's "Run" menu option

Tried to run your simplified example (below) and the bar does now work properly. Working with PyCharm2020.1.2 on a macOS 10.15.5 with Python3.7.3 using an new empty project and installing alive-progress as suggested on PyPi The bar only shows itself already completed after the 10s, so no progress is shown.

import time

from alive_progress import alive_bar


def main():
    with alive_bar(10, force_tty=True) as bar:
        for i in range(10):
            time.sleep(1)
            bar()
    print("done")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

I also tried running this code from Terminal. The result is that it shows and updates the bar apparently correctly a few times (3 bars going up and down work fine during the 0/10 progress) but as soon as 1/10 progress is reached by the output of the bar, it prints a bar in a new line for every update…

Am I doing something wrong? 😇 Let me know if you need more info. Hopefully we can get this beautiful took working for me 2 💪

PS: the gifs on PyPi for the Styles section are not being shown, with a message of size being too big ; )

Yes, thanks @darkhark I wasn’t aware of that “Emulate terminal…” option! 👍

Indeed @darkhark , force_tty=True was the magic sauce for PyCharm (2021.1) - cheers!
