This happens in Tcl/Tk too. I'll follow up with the Tk folks and come back if there's any fix or workaround.
#!/usr/bin/env tclsh
package require Tk
bind . {<Escape>} {destroy .}
wm minsize . 1280 800
frame .f_1
button .f_1.b -text {Frame 1} -command {destroy .}
pack .f_1.b -expand true -fill both
frame .f_2
button .f_2.b -text {2 emarF} -command {destroy .}
pack .f_2.b -expand true -fill both
set current 1
set delay 500
proc flip {} {
global current
global delay
pack forget ".f_$current"
if {$current == 1} then {
set current 2
} else {
set current 1
}
pack ".f_$current" -expand true -fill both
after $delay {flip}
}
pack ".f_$current" -expand true -fill both
after $delay {flip}
