Hello All,

   OS - MAC 10.5.1
   Python 2.5.1
   Tk - 8.5.6

I am using the wm_attributes for transparency of top level window. But 
unable to do the same.  
The Tk wm attributes command takes option arguments
        self.top=Toplevel(master=self.parent)
        self.top.wm_attributes(alpha=0.0)
Let me know can I do on MAC system or Not? If not then please let me 
know what all changes are required into tkinter.

Thanks in advance.

wm_attributes does not take keyword arguments. See issue1500773.

something like this should work, though:
        self.top=Toplevel(master=self.parent)
        self.top.wm_attributes('-alpha', 0.8)

Hello Amaury Forgeot,

Thanks for reply.
As you said 'wm_attributes does not take keyword arguments' I have 
taken that pach from issue1500773 and updated the same.
Still I am not able to run with Python 2.5.1 on MAC 10.5.1. Please let 
me know if anything else I have to do.

Regards

Please revert that patch, it is not correct!
Did you try the commands I suggested in my previous post?

And please, be more specific than "I am not able to run". Do you get an
error message? If yes, copy its content here.

Amaury, can you be more specific on how it is not correct ? What patch
should be reverted ?

I'm closing this as invalid now. Although this, in some way, can be
considered a duplicate of issue1500773, I don't see it that way. I'm
just seeing an incorrect usage of wm_attributes, not a request to change
how it works, besides the question being asked ("can I do on MAC system
or Not?") should be moved to a proper mail list.

Guilherme, you are right. I think I looked at the wrong patch, sorry.
