How to clear/delete the contents of a Tkinter Text widget?

I checked on my side by just adding '1.0' and it start working

tex.delete('1.0', END)

you can also try this

python tkinter text-widget

According to the tkinterbook the code to clear a text element should be:

text.delete(1.0,END)

This worked for me. source

It's different from clearing an entry element, which is done like this:

entry.delete(0,END) #note the 0 instead of 1.0

python tkinter text-widget

this works

import tkinter as tkinputEdit.delete("1.0",tk.END)
