specify a text var in a Entry widget, Entry will have a init value named by text var

I'm guessing you are running under Windows of some version.
Could you specify what version of OS for sure and which version of PAGE you are having this issue with?

Under Linux, this only shows up when the program is run under Python.

I can verify that this happens under PAGE 7.2. A quick workaround would be to initialize the text var for the Entry widget at startup of the project_support.py file...

def main(*args):
    '''Main entry point for the application.'''
    global root
    root = tk.Tk()
    root.protocol( 'WM_DELETE_WINDOW' , root.destroy)
    # Creates a toplevel widget.
    global _top1, _w1
    _top1 = root
    _w1 = test2.Toplevel1(_top1)
   startup()
    root.mainloop()

def startup():
    _w1.pwd.set('')

It is possible that it could happen with other widgets as well. It's always a good idea to initialize your variables, tk or otherwise, during the startup process.
I hope this helps.

i use PAGE 7.2 and win10, it's a good practice to initialize varaiable such as ''

Thank you.
This will be fixed in the next release, which hopefully be in the next few days.
