Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: I found that the huge font in menus is due to an error in the call to SystemParametersInfo. Digging more, vc2008 defines WINVER=0x0600, which corresponds to Windows Vista, and is too high for Windows XP: this value activates the definition of extra fields in the NONCLIENTMETRICS structure, and SystemParametersInfo on Windows XP will not accept a sizeof() greater than expected.
I recompiled tk, adding WINVER=0x500 to the command line: nmake /f makefile.vc COMPILERFLAGS=-DWINVER=0x0500 And the menu is correctly displayed. I suggest to add this to the build_tkinter script. ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1601> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
