[Tkinter] Scroll Bars going backwards

I am having difficulty with my scroll bars sliding backward. Code below.

You are trying to scroll the root window, which can't be scrolled.
Also, the hierarchy of your windows isn't right
should be:
frame in root (you have this right)
canvas in frame (you have it attached to root)
scrollbars attached to canvas, but linked to frame. It's hard to explain what i mean here.
you can find an example that you can follow in the following code: https://github.com/Larz60p/CaliforniaPub...CompGui.py

Thank you for the response, I don't see where I have the frame attached to root
canvas in frame (you have it attached to root)
