Roger Serwy <roger.se...@gmail.com> added the comment: Those four lines are present just in case self.root is not initialized. Even if you short-circuit the behavior and set parent=self.top, the patch still works, only that closing the calling EditorWindow instance also closes the help dialog.
I tested the patch against 3.3a0 on Ubuntu and 3.2.2 on Vista and it does attach to root, not self.top. It sounds like remnants of "_singledialog" are present in EditorWindow.py. Did you back out of the previous patch before applying help_nonmodal_revision.patch? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue964437> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
