Tkinter TEXT background image

[joe_momma]

I don't understand- do you want a background image overlaid by the buttons or insert the image with the buttons? I don't the text widget is a great candidate for the first option, maybe a scrolled canvas with an image and buttons placed over.
the second try:

from PIL import Image, ImageTk
 
a = Tk()
img = Image.open("example.png")
image_ = ImageTk.PhotoImage(img)

scroll = Scrollbar(a, orient="vertical")
text = Text(a, width=25, height=15, wrap="none", yscrollcommand=scroll.set)
text.image_create("1.0", image=image_)
