Leon Maurer added the comment: It seems to depend on what you're doing. Plus, the delay I needed turned an already slow animation in to a slide show.
In this case, a better fix seems to be sticking a "root.update()" right before the "root.after". Then it works with no delay. However, apparently it's a little dangerous to use: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tkinter-discuss/2013-January/003346.html In my case, the only side effect seems to be that using the menu effectively pauses the simualtion. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16941> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
