Unable to change the size of windowscreen after I changed my computer (in tkinter)

Yesterday, I bought a new computer which is macOS Monterey version 12.5, and I transferred the code from the old computer to the new computer. However, now I can't change the size of the window screen on the new computer. It worked on the old computer. I really appreciate it if you can teach me some solutions to this.

Here is my code:

import sys
import pprint

sys.path.append("/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages")



from pathlib import Path

from tkinter import Tk, Canvas, Entry, Text, Button, PhotoImage,Label


from multiprocessing import Process


OUTPUT_PATH = Path(__file__).parent
ASSETS_PATH = OUTPUT_PATH / Path("./assets")






window = Tk()

def relative_to_assets(path: str) -> Path:
    return ASSETS_PATH / Path(path)

window.geometry("703x981")
window.configure(bg = "#FFFFFF")



canvas = Canvas(
    window,
    bg = "#FFFFFF",
    height = 981,
    width = 703,
    bd = 0,
    highlightthickness = 0,
    relief = "ridge"
)




window.resizable(False, False)
window.mainloop()

enter image description here

I want to generate the windowscreen, size of ("703x981"), but I get this small window screen. This windowscreen didn't change its size even if I changed the value.

What is the display resolution of your Computer? It could be that your old computer's resolution is lower than the new one. The window appears smaller when you have a high resolution because the geometry method excepts the value in pixels. I guess you should double the values inside the geometry function.

If it doesn't work when changing the values, use window.winfo_width() and window.winfo_height() to check if geometry function actually worked.

I hope this answers your question.
