Thank you, the code does shed some light. I does seem that the TTK themed/stylized widgets do not quite offer the level of customizations that the non-TTK allow. I understand that the TTK style widgets are supposed to be the same as the OS's respective widgets and thus the limitations.
Indeed, the classic Tk widgets are per-widget customized, while the themed Tk widgets are style-based. You can of course choose to style each widget differently, but it's designed to cover all or few easily.
Do you know can a non-TTK widget, say a button, after its colors have been customized then be altered to have the rounded corners and shadings as the XP button in my case?
At http://wiki.tcl.tk/14796 you will see how to customize the background on a Ttk button, with some extras. There are several other examples at the Tcl wiki that just need minor translation over to Perl/Tkx.
