This may be more of an IDLE question than Tkinter, but it does involve the technology of running Tkinter so I thought I'd try here.
What is the best way to popup a non-application (not running mainloop) Tk window in IDLE? I have found that code that just makes a Tkinter window behaves differently in IDLE depending on whether IDLE is running with subprocesses or not. Furthermore, it seems yet-again different if one is running pythonw.exe in Windows. Is there one way that works in all situations? Or is there a standard way of telling which IDLE mode (subprocesses or non-subprocesses) mode we are running, and then do different things based on the mode? I'm trying to show a window that has a button that can be pushed, but still allow people to type at the IDLE shell prompt. Maybe I've missed some documentation somewhere that describes the pitfalls of using Tkinter with IDLE? Thanks for any leads, -Doug _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
