Thank you for the replys,
I went with zentara suggestion. and changed the code to the following:


$Search_Listbox = $mw->Scrolled("Listbox",
    -background => "white",
    -scrollbars => "osoe",
    -height => 7,
    -width => 47,
    -listvariable => \@Test);
$Search_Listbox->place(-x => 5, -y => 150);

which solved all my problems.

Hi. This post really helped me with an unrelated issue, and by using see -> ('end') allowed me to watch a ton of output scroll in my textbox without having to wait for completion. Where is there other documentation on internal functions, such as "see" that I can reference? Thanks

internal functions? Tk::Listbox#$listbox->see(index)

frame = Frame(master)
scrollbar = Scrollbar(frame, orient=VERTICAL)
listbox = Listbox(frame, yscrollcommand=scrollbar.set)
scrollbar.config(command=listbox.yview)
scrollbar.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)listbox.pack(side=LEFT, fill=BOTH, e
+xpand=1)

I found that example on my search too, I just figured that the Listbox would have an option
without having to do the above. But I will give it a wack and post back in a few
