Sorry if I missed this topic.

In Tk9.1b0,

#if 0 //#ifdef MAC_OSX_TK
{"::tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle",
TkUnsupported1ObjCmd, PASSMAINWINDOW|ISSAFE},
#endif

Is this transient? Why?

Many thanks in advance

Miguel,
I was a bit in the process when I did TIP 750 with Marc.

https://core.tcl-lang.org/tips/doc/trunk/tip/750.md

To my knowledge, many MAC unsupported features were removed, as there
are supported normal features.

Take care,
Harald

ok, thanks a lot for the clarification.

Then, tklib needs a bit of a push...

./tablelist/scripts/tablelistUtil.tcl: [catch
{tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle isdark .} result] == 0) ? ./tooltip/tooltip.tcl: ::tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle style $b help none ./widget/dateentry.tcl: tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle style $dropbox \ ./notifywindow/notifywindow.tcl: ::tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle style
$w utility {hud
./tsw/scripts/elements.tcl: [catch {tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle
isdark .} result] == 0) ?
./tsw/scripts/elements.tcl: [catch {tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle
isdark .} result] == 0) ?
./mentry/scripts/mentryThemes.tcl: [catch
{tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle isdark .} result] == 0)

Trivial for the darkness side, not so for
"tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle style", any hints? I do not see this
covered in TIP 750.

If you take a closer look at tablelist, scrollutil, mentry, and tsw, you
will see that they are already fully adapted to TIP 750. For example,
the above code snippet from tablelistUtil.tcl belongs to the body of a proc:

proc tablelist::isInDarkMode {} {
return [expr {
([catch {winfo isdark .} result] == 0 ||
[catch {tk::unsupported::MacWindowStyle isdark .} result] == 0) ?
$result : 0}]
}

This procedure checks whether the application is in dark mode, and will
work as expected for all Tk versions, including 9.1b0.

I haven't (yet) examined which changes are necessary for other packages contained in tklib.

New Magicsplat Tcl/Tk installers for Windows have been released.

8.6.18-1.18.0 - updated to Tcl/Tk 8.6.18 with new and updated packages

9.0.4-2.0.7 - updated to Tcl/Tk 9.0.4 with new and updated packages

See https://www.magicsplat.com/tcl-installer/index.html for list of
included packages, updates, download links etc.

Note that installers are no longer signed (or rather are now
self signed) as I'm no longer willing to pay the current prices for Authenticode certificates.
