Thank you Alan,
I'd developed a template for this type of thing quite awhile ago and I
think I'll continue using that. Interestingly, ChatGPT generated code
that is similar to my template although the generated scale example was
not correct.
I have spent quite some time looking for ttk scale examples, reading ttk
documentation and I even bought an e-book. The book doesn't cover the
use of the scale widget. Perhaps the scale widget is not commonly used?
The author of the book discourages the use of the pack manager, instead
favours the grid manager. I've tried both and I think I find the pack
manager easier to use. I wonder if I should put more effort into
learning to use the grid manager?
Anyway, thank you again Alan for you thoughts.
