Hi guys,

I've just found an annoying problem when executing the same code in
Windows and Linux. I'm using ActiveTcl 8.5.1 and I detected some
different look between the Windows and Linux windows, when checking the
code I found that the Tk objects (i.e a button) have different sizes in
both platforms

% button .b1 -text "OK" -font {arial 8} -width 10
% pack .b1

In Linux
% winfo geometry .b1
86x25+0+0
% winfo pixels . 1i
87

In Windows
% winfo geometry .b1
70x25+22+0
% winfo pixels . 1i
96

As you can see the width is really different between platforms and that
causes that the look of my application is really different, with the
buttons even overlapping in some cases. I would bet that's something
related with the dpi, and if I change it will have the same look, but I
cannot ask all my clients to do that, so, my question is, is there any
workaroud? as anyone else found the same problem?

Best Regards,
