Lita, to find the detailed Tk version info (which is really important with 8.5
since it has changed considerably over its long life):
>>> import tkinter
>>> t = tk.Tk()
>>> t.tk.call('info', 'patchlevel')
'8.5.15'
>>> t.tk.call('tk', 'windowingsystem')
'aqua'

Terry,
I don't have a physical Windows machine but I fired up a Windows 7 virtual
machine and, again, with the stock python.org 2.7.8 and 3.4.1, the test in
msg222301 works just fine for me. I also tried it on a relatively current
Ubuntu Linux VM and its fine there, too. All of these were using either Tk
8.5.15 or 8.6.1 and they all work the same. For any kind of Tk work, one needs
to be using recent versions of Tk, ideally 8.5.15 or 8.6.1. But this is pretty
basic stuff. I don't know why there why a current Tk would not be able to
render this perfectly, unless it was being run on *really* old
hardware/graphics, or possibly if one were trying to run this under IDLE rather
than standalone.
