[New-bugs-announce] [issue40945] TKinter.Tk.geometry(Tk.winfo_geometry()) should be idempotent

[Ben Li-Sauerwine]

New submission from Ben Li-Sauerwine <bsauerwine at gmail.com>:

One would expect that calling TKinter.Tk.geometry(tk.winfo_geometry()) would be idempotent.  However, based on the system window frame, it is not and doing so moves the window down the screen.

Running the example below reproduces the issue.
