Python scroller for input

I wanted to start a new project with python, so i saw this so it looked cool so i wanted to give it a try, but i dont know how to make that scroller, all i found online was ways to make it scroll through text and documents, but not to control input, could someone help me make something like this?

and is there a way to make it display the number of characters above the scroller?

this is what i got online, i dont know if its the same thing as what i want

scrollbar1 = Scrollbar(master1, bg="green") 
scrollbar1.pack( side = RIGHT, fill = Y )

You are looking for Scale widget . Please check this snippet and also please refer https://anzeljg.github.io/rin2/book2/2405/docs/tkinter/scale.html for more details.

from tkinter import *   
root = Tk()   
root.geometry("100x100")    
v1 = DoubleVar()        
s1 = Scale( root, variable = v1,from_ = 1, to = 100,orient = HORIZONTAL)      
l3 = Label(root, text = "Horizontal Scaler")      
l1 = Label(root)  
s1.pack(anchor = CENTER)  
l3.pack() 
l1.pack()    
root.mainloop()

Edit

Scale

If you want the scale value dynamically on moving the pointer of scale and without triggering any button then please check this snippet along with screenshot.

from tkinter import *
def get_value(val):
    scale_val = "Scale value= " + str(val)
    label.config(text = scale_val)
root = Tk()   
root.geometry("100x150")    
v1 = DoubleVar()        
s1 = Scale( root, variable = v1,from_ = 1, to = 100,orient = HORIZONTAL, command=get_value)      
l3 = Label(root, text = "Horizontal Scaler")      
l1 = Label(root)  
s1.pack(anchor = CENTER)  
l3.pack() 
l1.pack()
label = Label(root)
label.pack()
root.mainloop()
