Argh, it turns out that I needed to do hwnd = int(eval(root.wm_frame())) not hwnd = root.winfo_id() So much for trusting the first code for "tkinter root window->window handle" I come across on the net. :) Thanks, it almost works now. Just one last problem, while it is always on top, it doesn't always have the input focus. Any recipes for that? That is, I want it to steal the focus if it doesn't have it.
