My version is PyCharm Professional edition 3.4, and the Adding a Path part is different.

You can go to "Preferences" --> "Project Interpreter". Choose the tool button at the right top corner.

Then choose "More..." --> "Show path for the selected interpreter" --> "Add". Then you can add a path.

I m new to PyCharm  using 2018 3 4 CE  and Python so I rotely tried to follow each of the above suggestions to access the PIL  Pillow  package which I knew was in system-site-packages   None worked   I was about to give up for the night when I happened to notice the venv pyvenv cfg file under my project in the Project Explorer window   I found the line  include-system-site-packages   false  in that file and so I changed it to  true    Problem solved

You should never need to modify the path directly  either through environment variables or sys path   Whether you use the os  ex  apt-get   or pip in a virtualenv  packages will be installed to a location already on the path  In your example  GNU Radio is installed to the system Python 2 s standard site-packages location  which is already in the path   Pointing PyCharm at the correct interpreter is enough  if it isn t there is something else wrong that isn t apparent   It may be that  usr bin python does not point to the same interpreter that GNU Radio was installed in  try pointing specifically at the python2 7 binary   Or  PyCharm used to be somewhat bad at detecting packages  File  gt  Invalidate Caches  gt  Invalidate and Restart would tell it to rescan  This answer will cover how you should set up a project environment  install packages in different scenarios  and configure PyCharm   I refer multiple times to the Python Packaging User Guide  written by the same group that maintains the official Python packaging tools   The correct way to develop a Python application is with a virtualenv   Packages and version are installed without affecting the system or other projects   PyCharm has a built-in interface to create a virtualenv and install packages   Or you can create it from the command line and then point PyCharm at it    cd MyProject   python2 -m virtualenv env     env bin activate   pip install -U pip setuptools    get the latest versions   pip install flask    install other packages  In your PyCharm project  go to File  gt  Settings  gt  Project  gt  Project Interpreter   If you used virtualenvwrapper or PyCharm to create the env  then it should show up in the menu   If not  click the gear  choose Add Local  and locate the Python binary in the env   PyCharm will display all the packages in the selected env     In some cases  such as with GNU Radio  there is no package to install with pip  the package was installed system-wide when you install the rest of GNU Radio  ex  apt-get install gnuradio    In this case  you should still use a virtualenv  but you ll need to make it aware of this system package    python2 -m virtualenv --system-site-packages env  Unfortunately it looks a little messy  because all system packages will now appear in your env  but they are just links  you can still safely install or upgrade packages without affecting the system   In some cases  you will have multiple local packages you re developing  and will want one project to use the other package   In this case you might think you have to add the local package to the other project s path  but this is not the case   You should install your package in development mode   All this requires is adding a setup py file to your package  which will be required anyway to properly distribute and deploy the package later  Minimal setup py for your first project  from setuptools import setup  find packages  setup      name  mypackage       version  0 1       packages find packages       Then install it in your second project s env    pip install -e  path to first project

Adding a Path  Go into File   Settings   Project Settings   Project Interpreter   Then press configure interpreter  and navigate to the  Paths  tab     Press the   button in the Paths area   You can put the path to the module you d like it to recognize    But I don t know the path    Open the python interpreter where you can import the module    gt  gt  import gnuradio  gt  gt  gnuradio   file    path to gnuradio    Most commonly you ll have a folder structure like this   foobarbaz    gnuradio        init   py     other file py   You want to add foobarbaz to the path here
