Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
"The configure and cget subcommands can still manipulate the values, but do not cause any variation to the look of the widget." is wrong. Setting the foreground color *does* change the unpressed foreground color, so that 'white' becomes 'white on white'. I consider not being more explicit about which options are or or not fixed, or at least not warning about foreground, to be a doc buglet. What a trap for someone trying to make a cross-platform dark theme. But their docs are theirs. And our docs are ours. We can't change external tk or ttk docs, but how about adding the following to the our ttk doc, just above 'Combobox'? Button On macOS, the pressed colors are fixed as white on blue. The background is otherwise fixed as white. So an attempt at white on dark results in white on white. ---------- stage: -> needs patch type: -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44243> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
