The :mod:`tkinter.scrolledtext` module provides a class of the same name which
2007-08-15 11:28:22 -03:00
implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar configured to do
the "right thing." Using the :class:`ScrolledText` class is a lot easier than
setting up a text widget and scroll bar directly. The constructor is the same
2008-05-17 15:44:45 -03:00
as that of the :class:`tkinter.Text` class.

The text widget and scrollbar are packed together in a :class:`Frame`, and the
methods of the :class:`Grid` and :class:`Pack` geometry managers are acquired
from the :class:`Frame` object. This allows the :class:`ScrolledText` widget to
be used directly to achieve most normal geometry management behavior.
Should more specific control be necessary, the following attributes are
available:
.. attribute:: ScrolledText.frame
The frame which surrounds the text and scroll bar widgets.
.. attribute:: ScrolledText.vbar
The scroll bar widget.
