Hello,
I was struggling with verticall scrollbar and read many content (mostly on stackoverflow), to find satisfying solution. Yours was the best, and almost perfect. Almost, becasue when I was using pack method, inner frame wasn't fill entire space in canvas (even it was defined in pack method). I made few changed (every changed line are commented) and it works fine for my purpose. For now inner frame is always resized to canvas size, and you can specify in widgets inside it their behaviour (which wasn't possible before). I decided to publish my solution here because someone may looks for it as I was. I think @kozmik-moore struggles the same problem. Am I wrong?
However I'm not sure is it correct and optimized. I know that even small mistake in tkinter may cause huge slow in app speed. Thats why it would be good to read some comment from author of original code. Thanks in advance @novel-yet-trivial
p.s. I attached two example images - with wrapper frame of parameter fill set to Y and second to BOTH.

@King-of-Kings-980 thanks for tip about my mistake. I fix it right now

This was exactly what I needed. I put a link to the original code in the comments of my project.

@streanger your answer is great but you did a mistake: In line 61 instead of self.canvas.itemconfigure("all", width=width, height=height) it should be self.canvas.itemconfigure("all", width=width) (without , height=height). Otherwise you won't be able to scroll correctly.

@King-of-Kings-980 you're absolutely right. Now i realized that in my private code I got correct version however forget to update here. Thanks for advice!
