Scrollable Frames!! - Tkinter CustomTkinter 8

In this video I'll show you how to use scrollable frames with CustomTkinter and Python.

In regular Tkinter, you need to add a scrollbar to a frame to make it scrollable, but in CustomTkinter there's a widget that comes with a scrollbar!

So no extra coding! Let's dive into it!

You are a godsend, I have been fighting with scrollable on TK for weeks, trying all sorts of different things to get it to work. My structure was already prepared for scrollableframe from CTK so simply changing from frame fixed my issue!

I am doing self-learning, and I have completed many tasks using your channel. i am looking out for projects and wish to work with experts

wow, so much better than tkinter. no messing around with multiple frames and using canvas and binding and configuring, etc. I got it to work with Tkinter. Your other video on this is very good btw. I am just doing basic stuff, displaying dataframes as tables in pop out top level windows, etc. But when I wanted to freeze the top row and first column of a table, similar to what you can do in the View tab of MS Excel, things got super complicated. there are just too many moving parts to make real applications in tkinter. so much work for just a scroll bar. it should be way simpler, like in this vid. I will give custom tkinter a go thanks to this nifty video! always super enlightening content. learned a lot about coding from you, thanks!

Hi, thanks for the video! After assigning different text to each button, I'm having trouble using .get or .cget to retrieve the text from the clicked button in the scrollable frame(so the text can be either printed or used in a function) I have OOP code that can do it but I can't reproduce it with functional programming which is the format I need it in. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

can i have a scrollable frame with both orientations?

[Golden_Hephaestus]

Thank you so much! Is there a function or way to hide/show the scrollbar? It'd be great if I can have the scrollbar show up if only a certain amount of buttons are on screen for example.

When scrolling the scrollableframe, my buttons are flickering extremely badly. Is there any way i can fix this?

how to destroy or delete scrollable frame? I'm trying to do frame.destroy() but it doesnt work...

Hi John! I've been trying to get into learning tkinter and customtkinter so I can create a GUI for a project of mine. I've having trouble finding solutions for creating a layout it which I can have widgets side by side, as opposed to stacked on top of each other (for example, a textbox on one side displaying information relevant to the button clicked on from either a combo box or scrollable frame that's next to it). I'm pretty sure it's something farily simple to implement, however I'm not exactly sure how to go about it. If you could do a tutorial on how to do this, it would be much appreciated!

I want to scroll frame by mouse wheel. Is it possible? Can you show an example?

[YusifRefae]

how to change the scroll speed of the CTK scrollable frame? it's very slow. I was able to bind it to key up and down and make the speed 200-300 for better response. But failed using MouseWheel to bind it. Still too slow. Looked through CTK documentation and there's no property for controlling to speed or increment of the scroll bar. any thoughts? Am I the only OCD person who's annoyed by the slow scroll on this frame? hahaha. Thanks!

Hi, I have a problem trying to change the height of the CTkScrollableFrame because it does not change it, I have tried several small sizes, which is what I need, and it does not do it, is there any way to force it to a small size like 100 or 50?

[Raining_Needles]

Hello! When I add widgets into my frame, the frame shrinks to wrap around them, how do I make it so it doesn't do this?

[sachi-gwlw]

how can we use scrollable frames in a dropdown menu?

Is it possible to have both vertical and horizontal bars?
