When we will dive into the functionality of the Canvas widget in a separate chapter, this application will introduce its standard scroll interface and the create_window() method. Note that this script requires the file python.gif to be placed in the same directory:

import tkinter as tk

class App(tk.Tk):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.scroll_x = tk.Scrollbar(self, orient=tk.HORIZONTAL)
        self.scroll_y = tk.Scrollbar(self, orient=tk.VERTICAL)
        self.canvas = tk.Canvas(self, width=300, height=100,
                                xscrollcommand=self.scroll_x.set,
                                yscrollcommand=self.scroll_y.set)
        self.scroll_x.config(command=self.canvas.xview)
        self.scroll_y.config(command=self.canvas.yview)

        self.frame = tk.Frame(self.canvas)
        self.btn = tk.Button(self.frame, text="Load image",
                             command=self.load_image)
        self.btn.pack()

        self.canvas.create_window((0, 0), window=self.frame,  
                                          anchor=tk.NW)

        self.canvas.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nswe")
        self.scroll_x.grid(row=1, column=0, sticky="we")
        self.scroll_y.grid(row=0, column=1, sticky="ns")

        self.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
        self.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
        self.bind("<Configure>", self.resize)
        self.update_idletasks()
        self.minsize(self.winfo_width(), self.winfo_height())

    def resize(self, event):
        region = self.canvas.bbox(tk.ALL)
        self.canvas.configure(scrollregion=region)

        tk.Label(self.frame, image=self.image).pack()

    app.mainloop()
