Bug summary

Hi, in IPython console withtkagg backend, if I plot two separate figures and close Figure1, the Figure2 window freezes, I cannot close it (Not Responding), and it interrupts the IPython console.
If I close Figure2 and then Figure1, there would be no issue at all.

Code for reproduction

%matplotlibtkimportmatplotlib.pyplotaspltplt.figure()plt.figure()

Actual outcome

Please see the video.

Expected outcome

Both should work without freezing.

Additional information

The application ofplt.show(block=False) doesn't have any impact.
