viewing problem with a long Tk interface on small screens

[RajVerma]

hi all,

I have a Tk interface that has 35 frames (for 32 different parameters) one below the other. I can see all the entire GUI on a 19 inch monitor but it doesn't show the whole GUI on a 14 inch monitor and it is not possible to drag the GUI up and down as the moving control is only on the top edge of the GUI.

so is there a nice way of dealing with this problem, when we have pretty long GUIs that couldn't fit in the screens?

thanx in adv,
Raj.

There are a couple of ways to proceed.

Using only basic Tk, you would need to set up a textbox with a scrollbar and put all your frames inside the text box.

Using BWidgets, you can use the ScrolledWindow widget.
