Tkinter Scrolling Issues
1
I am trying to put a scrollbar on my listbox but because the items I am inserting are so long, but the scrollbar does not scroll all the way. If you run the code below, you will see what I am talking about and notice that the horizontal scroll bar can not scroll all the way to the right. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Same problem occurs for the vertical scroll bar when you add a few more entries.
import tkinter
lista=[11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111,22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222,

Your scrollbars are overlapping the text in the listbox.

You are having issues with overlapping your scroll bars on the placed listbox. Most of the time place() is not what you want to use.
Instead try grid() this will help keep everything in order and sized correctly.
import tkinter
lista=[11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111,22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222,
