Any checkbutton I make with indicatoron false still shows the checkbox. Worse, "width" is applied as if it the checkbox was NOT there, so the width is far too short in that situation. My code had plenty of examples. It really messed up my app, though I've been able to work around the worst cases by changing the GUI to stop using indicatoron=False. I'm not sure when this first showed up. Until recently I only ever released 32-bit versions, which use ActiveState 8.4.19 and don't show the problem. -- Russell P.S. While we're on MacOS X bugs, here's another which I also reported to the Tcl/Tk project: the width of tk_menubutton is wrong on MacOS X (too narrow by several characters). Here's tcl code for that: tk_optionMenu .om omVar DC1 DC2 DC3 .om configure -width 3 # -indicatoron 0 pack .om I use wrapper classes for most Tcl/Tk widgets, including OptionMenu, so my workaround for this is to simply add 3 to width if a user specifies width on MacOS X. _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
