Apple changed something in Monterey that broke tcl/tk and the tcl/tk 
devs and the Python macOS devsare working to catch up.  All tkinter apps 
have this problem.
See https://bugs.python.org/issue44828

According to the bug report, installing the latest 3.8 may work.  Or 
revert to Big Sur?

In the future, please try searching the tracker for existing bug reports.
