Betreff: Bwidget 1.9.1"

Hi.

In this version of the Bwidget the default -entrybg for spinbox

comboBox... is gray, while in earlier bversions it is white.

When upgrading to the newest version TCL 8.4.19.4, TCL 8.5.8.2 we

found that all of our application GUIs are changed, and we can't see

the spinbox,comboBox...

Updating all our applications (hundreds) to comply with this new

change will require a lot of time !!!

What is the reason for the change ?

I think that compatabilty should be a high priority, and any change

should have a good reason !!!

Thanks,

Semion.
