[Tkinter] How to configure scrollbar dimension?

[water]

How to configure scrollbar dimension like below, and let it move scrollbar's block automate with associated object current visible position percentage?

[deanhystad]

What GUI? Tk? Qt? How are you making the scrollbar? What is the scrollbar supposed to do? Probably best if you make a small example that demonstrates your problem and post the code.

from tkinter import Tk, Listbox, Scrollbar

root_window = Tk()

list_1 = Listbox(root_window, height = 5)
list_1.grid(row = 0, column = 0)

vsb = Scrollbar(root_window, orient = 'vertical', command = list_1.yview)
vsb.grid(row = 0, column = 1)

list_1.configure(yscrollcommand = vsb.set)

list_1.insert('end', 'item-1')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-2')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-3')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-4')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-5')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-6')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-7')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-8')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-9')
list_1.insert('end', 'item-10')

root_window.mainloop()

This' my want:


Thanks.

I usually use pack- fill=X but for grid try:

vsb.grid(row = 0, column = 1,columnspan=2, sticky='n' + 's')

Got it, use 'sticky' stretch the 'scrollbar'.
