Scrodget is a generic scrolled widget implemented with snit.

It is very similar to the Bwidget's ScrolledWindow (with the added capability to place (automatic) scrollbars on top/bottom left/right.

Here is a sample:

Remember that Tcl/Tk source script widgets can be submitted to tklib for more general distribution.

PWQ What if I want scroll bars on left and right?

ABU ??? It is a relly unusual demand ... 1-feb-2005 Done.

Peter Newman 27 January 2005: Scrodget looks great. I use BWidgets ScrolledWindow a lot - but one thing that annoys me about it is that you can't turn auto-hiding off (and have either or both scrollbars fixed).

Scrodget fixes that. But it would be better if one could enable/disable autohiding, for the horizontal and vertical scrollbars, separately. Any chance of this?

Also PWQ's request for left AND/or right (and top AND/or bottom) is a bit unusual I agree. But a single Scrollbar Manager widget, that can be configured for every conceivable arrangement, would be very useful. And if you were able to do this, being able to enable/disable auto-hiding for the left, right, top and bottom scrollbars, individually, would IMHO be the best way to go.

Scrodget has been updated. First of all, you can download version 1.0.1 which solves some little BUGS.

Second, version 1.1 is available: it allows you to enable/disable autohiding, for the horizontal and vertical scrollbars, separately.

Third, version 2.0 allows you to enable 4 scrollbars (east/west/north/south).
