kcauto does not start on macOS

[cplusx]

• kcauto version (version on first line of CHANGELOG.md):v8.0.0-rc1
• Operating system and/or VM: MacOS catalina

Is the issue consistent (can be reproduced consistently) or is it intermittent (only happens sometimes)?: Yes

Please provide a thorough description of the issue. Screenshots, videos, or at least a step-by-step description of what is happening in the game is typically necessary to debug. line self.tk.call(_flatten((self._w, cmd)) + self._options(cnf)) pops error _tkinter.TclError: unknown option "-relief". My python is 3.7.5, tkinter version 3.6.8

Likely due to You are running on OSX, and that OS has strict guidelines for the appearance of buttons. You can't change the relief on buttons on OSX.

kcauto is largely untested on OSX. That said, for your current issue you can remove the two lines here:

https://github.com/mrmin123/kcauto/blob/master/kcauto/gui/layout_base.py#L180-L181

and run it again.

The relief issue is solved, but got another tkinter error _tkinter.TclError: unknown option "-fg" Do you have any idea about which file should I locate? I searched for keyword, there is no explicit assignment of fg=xxx

[perryhuynh]

the CLI should run without issues, the flag is --cli you were missing a -

as for the -fg option, theres multiple usages of it in config_tab_buttons.py and gui_tab_buttons.py

In order to get it running on OSX you may need to also install pyobjc

[PySimpleGUI]

Note that PySimpleGUI Buttons recently changed for the Mac. They are no longer tk.Button but instead ttk.Button. You can force them to be either one but for the Mac the default is ttk buttons. If using the .Widget extension of PySimpleGUI then you'll likely run into problems if originally used the settings using tk.Button parameters.
