Thanks for the additional info but it still leaves open questions.  The current 
versions of python.org installers for macOS (3.8.2 and 3.7.7) and various 
others over the past couple of years all come with a built-in version of Tk 8.6 
and that normally cannot be overriden. So if you are seeing indications that Tk 
8.5.x is in use, you are somehow not really using those current versions of 
python.org installers or you are calling out within them directly to an older 
version of Tk (via a subprocess call, for example).  The Apple-provided Tk 
8.5.x on macOS systems is woefully out-of-date and has known critical bugs, 
like crashing when typing in composite characters (like option-u then U to 
produce Ü on an English keyboard).  Anyway, since you have solved the issue for 
you, I am going to close this issue.
