Dear lists, I send this to comp.lang.perl.tk and [EMAIL PROTECTED] because I think it is necessary for both to know the problem I have.
I have isolated my problem to the following code : use strict; use warnings; use Tk; my $main; my $menu; $main = MainWindow->new; $menu = $main->Menu(-type => 'menubar'); $main->configure(-menu => $menu); $menu->command(-label => 'File', -state => 'disabled'); MainLoop; Platforms : - Cygwin 1.3.9 + Cygwin Perl (5.6.1) + Tk800.23 + Windows NT patch 6 - Debian Linux testing + Perl 5.6.1 + Tk800.23 When I run this code on Linux, it does what it is supposed to do : the menu button should be greyed out. When I run this code under Cygwin however, the button is disabled in the sense that it does not popup a menu or execute a command, but the only states that it can enter are 'normal' and 'active'. It seems impossible to change the attributes of the menu item. I can get it working via the old way, Menubuttons in a frame can be manipulated at will, but Menubuttons or menu entries in a Menu do not seem to change their attributes (their behaviour is allright). Since I have two possibilities to get this to work, this is not really a blocking factor, but it takes some more work to build my system the old way and manipulate using pack.
