:mod:`ScrolledText` --- Scrolled Text Widget
.. module:: ScrolledText :platform: Tk :synopsis: Text widget with a vertical scroll bar.
.. sectionauthor:: Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake@acm.org>
The :mod:`ScrolledText` module provides a class of the same name which 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 as that of the :class:`Tkinter.Text` class.
Note
:mod:`ScrolledText` has been renamed to :mod:`tkinter.scrolledtext` in Python 3. The :term:`2to3` tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your sources to Python 3.
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.
