1:mod:`tkinter.scrolledtext` --- Scrolled Text Widget 2==================================================== 3 4.. module:: tkinter.scrolledtext 5 :platform: Tk 6 :synopsis: Text widget with a vertical scroll bar. 7 8.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake@acm.org> 9 10**Source code:** :source:`Lib/tkinter/scrolledtext.py` 11 12-------------- 13 14The :mod:`tkinter.scrolledtext` module provides a class of the same name which 15implements a basic text widget which has a vertical scroll bar configured to do 16the "right thing." Using the :class:`ScrolledText` class is a lot easier than 17setting up a text widget and scroll bar directly. The constructor is the same 18as that of the :class:`tkinter.Text` class. 19 20The text widget and scrollbar are packed together in a :class:`Frame`, and the 21methods of the :class:`Grid` and :class:`Pack` geometry managers are acquired 22from the :class:`Frame` object. This allows the :class:`ScrolledText` widget to 23be used directly to achieve most normal geometry management behavior. 24 25Should more specific control be necessary, the following attributes are 26available: 27 28 29.. attribute:: ScrolledText.frame 30 31 The frame which surrounds the text and scroll bar widgets. 32 33 34.. attribute:: ScrolledText.vbar 35 36 The scroll bar widget. 37
