No. Tkinter doesn't use any other library and draws its own widgets, which until now look like very old-style Motif widgets on Unix. There's a new version of tcl/tk (on which Tkinter is based) that has a new look for widgets, basically looking like gtk's default theme, but it doesn't use gtk at all. This can be seen as an advantage or a drawback depending on what you're looking for: - this keeps the toolkit very small and independent (no dependency hell) - this basically ensures that the look won't be "native" And BTW, the new version of tcl/tk is supposed to look native on Windows & MacOS too. Unfortunately, this version is very new and the Tkinter module has not been adapted for it yet.
