Callbacks registered in the tkinter module now take arguments as
various Python objects (int, float, bytes, tuple), not just str.
To restore the previous behavior set tkinter module global wantobject to 1
before creating the Tk object or call the wantobject() method of the Tk object
with argument 1.
Calling it with argument 2 restores the current default behavior.
This is an experimental feature, for internal use.
Setting tkinter._debug = True before creating the root window enables
printing every executed Tcl command (or a Tcl command equivalent to the
used Tcl C API).
This will help to convert a Tkinter example into Tcl script to check
whether the issue is caused by Tkinter or exists in the underlying Tcl/Tk
library.
* Add PhotoImage.read() to read an image from a file.
* Add PhotoImage.data() to get the image data.
* Add background and grayscale parameters to PhotoImage.write().
* Add the PhotoImage method copy_replace() to copy a region
from one image to other image, possibly with pixel zooming and/or
subsampling.
* Add from_coords parameter to PhotoImage methods copy(), zoom() and subsample().
* Add zoom and subsample parameters to PhotoImage method copy().
Change automatically generated tkinter.Checkbutton widget names to
avoid collisions with automatically generated tkinter.ttk.Checkbutton
widget names within the same parent widget.
By default, it preserves an inconsistent behavior of older Python
versions: packs the count into a 1-tuple if only one or none
options are specified (including 'update'), returns None instead of 0.
Except that setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Add a new parameter return_ints: specifying return_ints=True makes
Text.count() always returning the single count as an integer
instead of a 1-tuple or None.
* When called with a single argument to get a value, it allow to omit
the minus prefix.
* It can be called with keyword arguments to set attributes.
* w.wm_attributes(return_python_dict=True) returns a dict instead of
a tuple (it will be the default in future).
* Setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Previously, "tag_unbind(tag, sequence, funcid)" methods of Text and
Canvas widgets destroyed the current binding for "sequence", leaving
"sequence" unbound, and deleted the "funcid" command.
Now they remove only "funcid" from the binding for "sequence", keeping
other commands, and delete the "funcid" command.
They leave "sequence" unbound only if "funcid" was the last bound command.
winfo_id() converts the result of "winfo id" command to integer, but
"winfo pathname" command requires an argument to be a hexadecimal number
on Win64.
Previously, "widget.unbind(sequence, funcid)" destroyed the current binding
for "sequence", leaving "sequence" unbound, and deleted the "funcid"
command.
Now it removes only "funcid" from the binding for "sequence", keeping
other commands, and deletes the "funcid" command.
It leaves "sequence" unbound only if "funcid" was the last bound command.

It now always returns an integer if one or less counting options are specified.
Previously it could return a single count as a 1-tuple, an integer (only if
option "update" was specified) or None if no items found.
The result is now the same if wantobjects is set to 0.
Previously, checkbuttons in different parent widgets could have the same
short name and share the same state if arguments "name" and "variable" are
not specified. Now they are globally unique.
add:
* `_simple_enum` decorator to transform a normal class into an enum
* `_test_simple_enum` function to compare
* `_old_convert_` to enable checking `_convert_` generated enums
`_simple_enum` takes a normal class and converts it into an enum:
@simple_enum(Enum)
class Color:
RED = 1
GREEN = 2
BLUE = 3
`_old_convert_` works much like` _convert_` does, using the original logic:
# in a test file
import socket, enum
CheckedAddressFamily = enum._old_convert_(
enum.IntEnum, 'AddressFamily', 'socket',
lambda C: C.isupper() and C.startswith('AF_'),
source=_socket,
)
`_test_simple_enum` takes a traditional enum and a simple enum and
compares the two:
# in the REPL or the same module as Color
class CheckedColor(Enum):
RED = 1
GREEN = 2
BLUE = 3
_test_simple_enum(CheckedColor, Color)
_test_simple_enum(CheckedAddressFamily, socket.AddressFamily)
Any important differences will raise a TypeError

When simple query dialogs (tkinter.simpledialog), message boxes
(tkinter.messagebox) or color choose dialog (tkinter.colorchooser)
are created without arguments master and parent, and the default
root window is not yet created, a new temporary hidden root window
will be created automatically. It will not be set as the default root
window and will be destroyed right after closing the dialog window.
It will help to use these simple dialog windows in programs which do
not need other GUI.
Previously, message boxes and color chooser created the blank root
window and left it after closing the dialog window, and query dialogs
just raised an exception.

* Tkinter functions and constructors which need a default root window
raise now RuntimeError with descriptive message instead of obscure
AttributeError or NameError if it is not created yet or cannot
be created automatically.
* Add tests for all functions which use default root window.
* Fix import in the pynche script.
* "Return true/false" is replaced with "Return ``True``/``False``"
if the function actually returns a bool.
* Fixed formatting of some True and False literals (now in monospace).
* Replaced "True/False" with "true/false" if it can be not only bool.
* Replaced some 1/0 with True/False if it corresponds the code.
* "Returns <bool>" is replaced with "Return <bool>".
* Use the 'p' format unit instead of manually called PyObject_IsTrue().
* Pass boolean value instead 0/1 integers to functions that needs boolean.
* Convert some arguments to boolean only once.
