Hello,
thanks for the report.
I was aware of the strange behavior with Tcl/Tk 8.5 and checkbuttons/radiobuttons but I needed some motivation to fix it. Now that puppy use this version I fixed it and TkDVD 4.0 CVS works perfectly with Tk 8.5a.

For packing/display problems, it is a bit strange because on my slackware with Tcl/Tk 8.5a there is no problem for the main window to fit in 800x600 screen, but I've downloaded puppy 2.01 and as you said, it doesn't fit well. Maybe a bug of tcl/tk 8.5 in some circunstance, but I've fixed TkDVD so it now works in puppy too !

For now all fixes are in CVS version of TkDVD. I will try to release the final 4.0 version of TkDVD soon (just need to test a little more all new features).

Regards,
Regis Damongeot

regis,
I've upgraded Puppy Linux to use Tcl/Tk 8.5a4, as I want the
antialiased fonts. This will be in Puppy v2.01, expected to be
released 19 - 20th June 2006.
Still using TkDVD 3.9.0.
TkDVD works, but some very odd things.

Packing does not fill the window correctly. The problem is in
the vertical direction, causing the command box to be scrunched up, and the Burn button does not display.
The window can be resized to show everything, but then it is a bit
too big for a 800x600 screen (which many people using older
monitors use).

In the configuration window, there is something odd about the
checkboxes and radioboxes. Selections work okay, but some
deselected checkboxes and radiobuttons show the tick or dot
greyed-out when they should be totally gone.
The configuration window still works okay.
It's strange, as some deselected items are displayed correctly.

I do not know if any of these are "features" of the new 8.5, or
bugs. But, I was wondering if you could adjust the code of
TkDVD in any way to fix/compensate.

Regards,
Barry Kauler
