Summary: No flat button relief, Mac Aqua

Initial Comment:
Setting relief to "flat" makes no difference in Aqua Tk

8.4.4.

The button still appears raised.



button .b -relief flat -text {hippo}

pack .b



The Python Mega-Widget package uses flat relief buttons

for the

tabs on tabbed panes (PMW Notebook).  The raised buttons

make it not obvious these are tabs.



This is related to tktoolkit bug 780528 which is a

relief problem

with radiobuttons with indicators off.

That's an odd way to do a Notebook.  Most people use a Canvas, 

so you can draw the tabs in some nice fashion.  See for instance 

the iWidgets Tabbed Notebook.  Then you can just use the touch-

sensitivity of regions on the canvas to run the tabs.



Note this doesn't mean we shouldn't do something with non-

standard buttons.  There are no flat buttons in the Mac OS X 

Toolbox.  We probably need to list all the options that are not 

supported in the Toolbox, and just make X11 widgets if any of 

these options are set.
