  1. POWhy do I see differences in Tkinter between two builds?
    text
    copied!<p>I've been using Python 2.7.2 with Tkinter.Tcl version 8.5.11, which I installed using the instructions <a href="http://jholewinski.wordpress.com/2011/07/21/installing-matplotlib-on-os-x-10-7-with-homebrew/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. Recently I did another installation using the instructions <a href="http://www.thisisthegreenroom.com/2011/installing-python-numpy-scipy-matplotlib-and-ipython-on-lion/#lion" rel="nofollow">here</a> in order to get SciPy to build correctly. The newer installation also shows as Python 2.7.2 and Tkinter.Tcl 8.5.11, but the same code does not work on both installs. I am on a Mac running OS X 10.7.2.</p> <p>On the earlier install, LabelFrame() keywords "bd" and "font" are recognized, while on the second install they are not. I can use "borderwidth" instead of "bd" on the second install.</p> <p>On the earlier install, LabelFrame(text="mylabel") displays the text imbedded in the frame. On the second install, the text is displayed outside of the frame. From the description <a href="http://www.tkdocs.com/tutorial/onepage.html" rel="nofollow">here</a> under the heading "Label Frames", I see that is expected behavior, but it is different on the earlier install.</p> <p>The biggest problem is not being able to use named fonts on the second install.</p> <p>This is likely unrelated, but with the second build, importing <code>matplotlib.pylab as plt</code> and then executing <code>plt.plot(mydata); plt.show()</code> displays the plot but then frequently causes python to crash.</p> <p>Any ideas how I might get this working?</p>
