[issue39844] IDLE 3.8.2 on MacOS 10.15.3 Launches to Black Windows

Ned Deily added the comment: Thanks for the pythoninfo output. I didn't see anything unusual there. So I remain perplexed. The thing is the macOS Tk 8.6.8 we supply with current python.org installers doesn't support Dark Mode at all, AFAIK. That was added in 8.6.9. I normally have macOS Da

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: The black one from 2.42 shows that the disfunction in your system is not in tkinter app and is likely upstream from that (the relationship between tk and mac). -- ___ Python tracker

Jacin Ferreira added the comment: I've attached the output of the test.pythoninfo as requested. I am in Dark mode all the time. I did try Light mode first thing as sometimes apps aren't updated to work in Dark mode but the same exact issue happened. --- bin % /usr/local/bin/python3 Python 3

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I just upgraded to 10.14.6 and 3.8.2 and python/IDLE is normal. (I have so far closed the every login 'upgrade to Catalina' box because of reports like this.) Ned, is current 8.6.10 any better than 8.6.9? -- ___

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: This is almost certainly a tcl/tk/tkinter on Catalina issue, not an IDLE issue. Screenshots are missing headlight colors, and that should be impossible to cause from Python. In standard python, try >>> import tkinter as tk >>> r = tk.Tk() Should see small

Ned Deily added the comment: Hmm, intersting! I have seen problems with black screens before when using some newer versions of Tk which is the main reason we are using Tk 8.6.8 on macOS. Let's try getting some more info: /usr/local/bin/python3.8 -m test.pythoninfo Also, which macOS Appeara

Jacin Ferreira added the comment: Thank you so much Ned. I appreciate it. What you said makes sense. I went ahead and did what you suggested and validated that I am indeed running Python 3.8.2 but I'm still getting the black screens. bin % /usr/local/bin/python3.8 -c "import sys;print(sys.

Ned Deily added the comment: Thank you for your report. I am unable to reproduce that behavior. I suspect that the most likely explanation is that you are not actually using the python.org 3.8.2 but rather an IDLE and python from some other distributor (like Homebrew) that has a different v
