Jose M. Alcaide added the comment: My previous comment was incorrect, sorry. I thought that this issue was fixed in time for the release of Python 3.5, but it wasn't (fix was committed on Sep 26, two weeks after 3.5's release). My apologies. -- ___

Jose M. Alcaide added the comment: This issue continues unfixed. After uninstalling ActiveTcl 8.5.18 and then installing ActiveTcl 8.5.17, IDLE completion and call tips work again. Tested with Python 3.5 and 3.4.1. -- nosy: +jmas ___ Python tracker

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Added equivalent completion window patch. Would have preferred confirmation that Idle versions work, but 3.4.4rc1 is only a week away and I think having bug confirmed and fixed in tcl is enough to go with. -- assignee: -> terry.reedy resolution: ->

Kevin Walzer added the comment: I experimented with Mark's sample code (thanks for that, BTW), and found that the window with the "help" tag applied would display with this simple addition: raise .t I believe the equivalent call in Tinter is lift(), because raise() is for error handling? Perh

Mark Roseman added the comment: I did some followup on this today, and could reproduce it with a few lines of Tcl/Tk code. As Ned noted, it seems particular to the ActiveTcl build, as when I built my own 8.5.18 it also worked fine. (If you're curious, the thing that is failing is the MacWindow

Alessandro Rosa added the comment: Hi Terry, I will try my best to answer your questions. To update you, I decided to completely uninstall the ActiveState frameworks from my Mac. This brought me back to the dreaded Apple version of Tcl/Tk 8.5.9 with the IDLE warning about it. At this point Au

Ned Deily added the comment: Thanks for the report. Taking a quick look at it, it appears that the problem was introduced with the most recently releases of ActiveTcl on OS X, 8.5.18 and 8.6.4. The autocomplete popups seem to work fine with the previous OS X release of ActiveTcl 8.5 (8.5.17)
