How To Create ScrollTextArea In TKinter Python

In this TKinter Python article i want to show you How To Create ScrollTextArea In TKinter

so you can read my previous articles on Python TKinter GUI Development.

Also you can read more articles on Python GUI Development

So first of all this is the complete code for creating ScrollTextArea in tkinter

import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import scrolledtext



class Window(tk.Tk):
    def __init__(self):
        tk.Tk.__init__(self)
        self.title("Tkinter Scrolled Text Controll")
        self.minsize(600, 400)
        self.wm_iconbitmap('icon.ico')

        self.scrolledTextCtrl()


    def scrolledTextCtrl(self):
        scroll_w = 30
        scroll_h  = 10


        scrollText = scrolledtext.ScrolledText(self, width = scroll_w, height = scroll_h,
                                               wrap = tk.WORD)
        scrollText.grid(column = 0, columnspan = 3)





window = Window()
window.mainloop()

import tkinter as tk

from tkinter import scrolledtext

class Window(tk.Tk):

def __init__(self):

tk.Tk.__init__(self)

self.title("Tkinter Scrolled Text Controll")

self.minsize(600, 400)

self.wm_iconbitmap('icon.ico')

self.scrolledTextCtrl()

def scrolledTextCtrl(self):

scroll_w = 30

scroll_h = 10

scrollText = scrolledtext.ScrolledText(self, width = scroll_w, height = scroll_h,

wrap = tk.WORD)

scrollText.grid(column = 0, columnspan = 3)

window = Window()

window.mainloop()

So in this part we have used Object Oriented Programming (OOP), we have created a class that extends from tk.TK and we have added our window title, window size and window icon in the constructor of the class, make sure that you have added an icon to your working directory. also we have called our scrollTextControl() method in this class.

class Window(tk.Tk):
    def __init__(self):
        tk.Tk.__init__(self)
        self.title("Tkinter Scrolled Text Controll")
        self.minsize(600, 400)
        self.wm_iconbitmap('icon.ico')

        self.scrolledTextCtrl()
