Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 21 6:06 am)
Subject: Python Scripts on Macs
Does Mac P7 work with Tkinter? I thought there were still problems.... I hope it does work.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking. He apologizes for this. He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.
Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below. His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
Tkinter is the module that is used in Poser 4 and 5 for creating user interfaces. The Tkinter that comes with Python 2.2 or lower (which means PoserPython 6 or lower) does not work on Mac OSX.
Poser 6 and 7 contain their own, wxPython based user interface modules, which do work on Mac OSX. The problem with this user interface is that it is quite limited. For example, trees and listboxes are not possible.
Poser 7 uses Python 2.4, which contains a fixed Tkinter module, so Tkinter based scripts will work with P7 on a Mac.
Since the Python interpreters are embedded within Poser, it's not possible to upgrade/update PoserPython as a user. Even though the Tkinter libraries is stored externally, you can't replace it by a Mac OSX compliant higher version - PoserPython in Poser 6 or lower can't deal with Tkinter 2.4

That's different from P7 PC, it appears to have an embedded Python interpreter. There's no /Library/Frameworks folder in the PC version of P7.

stewer Is what you have in /Library/Frameworks different from what you had for P6 ? (if you had P6)
Because I have a file called FrameWork.py in Runtime/Python/Mac/Lib .
So does that mean the interpreter is not embeded for P6?

Are you a mac user and run poser/python scripts? I could use your help!
I was trying to run Dimension3D's "Unhide Dials" and got an error message " No module named _tkinter". Anyone knows what tkinter is used for,and what else (if any) is needed to make this and other python scripts run on a Mac?
(Some python scripts do work - obviousely those that came with P6,but also for example, the cloth type settings for the cloth room by PhilC)
