Below my signature is a trivial ttk script with two widgets: an Entry and a quit button. Styling the font on the quit button works great. But styling the font on the Entry widget does not; I always get the default font, which is a bit small for many people over the age of 40.
I've tried a number of things, but either I'm missing something really stupid in my code, or there is a defect in the ttk.Entry code that it does not pick up a font. Here's our version:
tk.__version__
'$Revision: 81008 $'
ttk.__version__
'0.3.1' I would appreciate any suggestions.
