[Tkinter-discuss] Different aspect in windows and linux for the Button's highlight background

[Rossana Airoldi]

Hi all

The following script has different behaviour in Linux and Windows.
In Linux you can see the button’s highlight colors. In Windows when the
button has the focus you see a dashed 1 pixel line around the inner space of
the button.
Is there a way to override this Windows behaviour and to have the
interpreter to work in the same way as in Linux?

I would appreciate any suggestion, advice you can give me.
Have a good day
