Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Tk ticket update: '''aspect added on 2015-12-28 00:30:33: I can reproduce this crash on 8.5.18 and 8.6.4, but it appears to be fixed in trunk: "not enough free memory for image buffer".''' We should see fix in 3.6. Doc addition is not exactly trivial, as there is only the barest mention of images in https://docs.python.org/3/library/tkinter.html#images. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25959> _______________________________________
