I am trying to make a scrollable canvas in the horizontal direction but I am having a difficult time. I get the whole scroll bar and can scroll using the arrows on the ends of the scroll bar but the actual bar (the slider bar) takes up the whole scrollbar area as if there is nothing to scroll. Thus, the slider bar cannot be used to scroll. (It may be easier to understand if you just run the snipit of code) I am wondering how I can fix this. Here is my code:
from Tkinter import * from tkFileDialog import * import os class analyze_notes: def __init__(self): string='' for i in range(0,100):string=string+' '+str(i) self.comp_1=Tk() self.comp_1.title('Try') l1=Label(self.comp_1, text='Try canvas').grid() c1_xscroll=Scrollbar(self.comp_1, orient=HORIZONTAL) c1_xscroll.grid(row=2, sticky=E+W+N) c1=Canvas(self.comp_1, height=150, width=400, relief=SUNKEN, xscrollcommand=c1_xscroll.set) c1.grid(row=1) c1_xscroll.config(command=c1.xview) self.topic_label = Label(c1, text=string, font=('courier',10), bg='white') c1.create_window(0, 50, window=self.topic_label, anchor=NW) self.comp_1.mainloop() r=analyze_notes() Thanks in advance, -- Bradley J.
