https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35397377/python-freezes-when-configuring-idle froze IDLE with a custom theme missing 'colours for the blinker and highlighting'. I reported some experiments there. Tracebacks might help, but Proposal 1: check theme before try to paint. All keys present? Replace missing with normal colors. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63137659/idle-crashing-when-i-press-configure-idle froze IDLE with a custom theme with a bad color "#00224". File "C:\Users\...\idlelib\configdialog.py", line 1279, in paint_theme_sample self.highlight_sample.tag_config(element, **colors) ... _tkinter.TclError: invalid color name "#00224" Proposal 2: wrap line in try-except, if error text matches, extract bad color, replace any occurrence of bad color with "#000000" (black) or "#FFFFFF" (white), report to user with suggestion to edit. Maybe save first. Should do within loop in case more errors. |
