in this video we'll learn how to use Text widget to take input or displaying large text in tkinter application.

Along with creating it, we'll also learn about the options that we can use with Text widget in tkinter.

The option that we are going to learn in this video are as follows-

1. height = tells us how many number of lines we need in Text widget.
2. width = tells us number of characters in each line in Text widget.
3. padx = space between border and text in both right and left side.
4. pady = space between border and text in both top and left side.
5. bd = to change the border size.
6. selectbackground = to change the background of selected text.
7. font = to change the font family, size or style of the text.
8. wrap = to wrapping the text inside textbox. CHAR and WORD are to option to wrap.

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

text = Text(root, width=20, height=10, wrap=WORD, padx=10, pady=10, bd=5, selectbackground="blue")
