ttk::scale pathName ?options...?

A real value corresponding to the left or top end of the scale. | ||
-length | length | Length |

Specifies which orientation whether the widget should be laid out horizontally or vertically. Must be either horizontal or vertical or an abbreviation of one of these. | ||
