Python Tkinter Text Area set cursor to end

Question

I have a Tkinter Text() object and I append lines to it using .insert(END, string). When the text fills the available area, I\'d expect it to scrol

Answer 1

As usual with Tkinter, there are a number of ways to do this, but one is the easiest: Text.see:

text.insert(END, "spam\n")
text.see(END)

If you want to make sure the start of the new text is visible, not the end of it, or if you only want to do this if the end was already visible beforehand or if the text is active, etc., you may need to look at the other options: scan_mark/scan_dragto, or yview and friends.
