I'm testing a small Tkinter app on Cygwin, and have noted a problem behaviour with tkMessageBox showinfo method (I presume the problem would also occur with showwarning or showerror). Msg text in the showinfo dialog is not visible, nor is the text in the OK button.
If I put the same message text into a label and display that label in a Toplevel widget, the text is visible. I note that tkMessageBox code (created by Fredrik Lundh way back in 1997!) inherits from Dialog, and passes options to it. I wonder if, in cygwin, I need to explicity set a font family or type, or a text colour, and if so, how to do that? I tried adding a font parameter to the showinfo method call, but it only accepts default, icon, message, parent, title or type. thanks, -- Stewart Midwinter [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype, GoogleTalk, iChatAV, MSN, Yahoo: midtoad AIM:midtoad1 _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
