Roger Serwy <roger.se...@gmail.com> added the comment: I've uploaded a patch to solve the problem.
In CallTipWindow.py, the showtip function binds key releases and button releases to the checkhide_event function. The checkhide_event function creates a .after callback to itself whenever it's called. Each key release adds to a cascade of calls to checkhide_event which results in Tk slowing down. When checkhide_event is called from .after, the "event" argument takes its default of None. Only then should a new .after call be made. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +serwy Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14267/CallTipWindow.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5219> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
