Thanks Kevin The only place I specify a font is on this line: mytext = Text(root, background='#101010', foreground="#D6D6D6", borderwidth=18, relief='sunken',width=16, height=5, font="Times 8 bold" )
I am using native Aqua version as I don't explicitly change it anywhere. I am not sure of what you mean when you say it looks pixelated, but could that be because of taking a screenshot ? The problem has been reported on a large number of Mac Pcs - so am sure not all of them would be HiDPI/Retina display thanks Bhaskar Chaudhary On 2/14/14, Kevin Walzer <k...@codebykevin.com> wrote: > On 2/14/14, 9:20 AM, Bhaskar Chaudhary wrote: >> Any more suggestions on how to correct this issue will be really >> appreciated. > > A few observations: > > 1.
