I think the problematic part is this: root.tk.call('package', 'require', 'tile') root.tk.call('namespace', 'import', '-force', 'ttk::*') root.tk.call('ttk::setTheme', 'clam') If I understand this correctly it will override the names of the core tk widgets with their themed counterparts. So the file using the (no longer existing) "background" option is probably msgbox.tcl . If you want to use tile you are certainly better off using Guilherme Polo's ttk module.
