SOLUTION FOUND!
The fix was to write the code that uses the width value and to place it into
the function itself.
Kluge? Maybe but it works.
Mischief Managed.
========================
As for the most recent suggestion, it fails for me:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "F:/___zInsulin Code A 08-02-23/WinPic/IOWw.pyw", line 14, in <module>
print("Ww Outside = <" + str(Ww) > + ">")
TypeError: bad operand type for unary +: 'str'
With the need to close the window, it adds an extra step and intervention to
the program to use. I am not sure how this help[s.
As a curio, it would be interesting to see how to use the value of a variable,
created in the function used here, and make it available to the code outside
the function.

Produces:
Ww Inside = <200>
Ww Inside = <200>
Ww Inside = <205>
Ww Inside = <205>
Ww Inside = <206>
Ww Inside = <206>
Ww Outside = <206>
