In this post we will learn about the Scrollbars widget in Tkinter, Scrollbars is actually an independent widget which we will learn how to integrate it with the text widget we saw in our earlier post. Lets get started,

IN[1]

import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk

try :
    from ctypes import windll
    windll.shcore.SetProcessDpiAwareness(1)
except :
    pass

root = tk.Tk()
root.geometry("600x400")
root.resizable(False, False)
root.title("Scrollbars in Tkinter")

root.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight = 1)
root.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight = 1)

text = tk.Text(root, height = 8)
text.grid(row = 0, column = 0, sticky = "ew")
text.insert("1.0", "This is a sample text")

text_scroll = ttk.Scrollbar(root, orient = "vertical", command = text.yview)
text_scroll.grid(row = 0, column = 1, sticky = "ns")

root.mainloop()
