Tkinter Make PageOne from Mr Bryan Oakley child of Mr. Mikhails' ScrolledWindow - oop

Question

I´m using this very known script from Mr. Bryan Oakley. My question is: How make class PageOne child of ScrolledWindow from Mr. Mikhail (https://stackoverflow.com/users/6470235/mikhail-tin). His script is in the question: Tkinter scrollbar for frame. But I wrote both bellow.
When I try
PageOne = ScrolledWindow(parent=SampleApp) python asks for controller, if I use container, it doesnot recognize it.
If I use PageOne = ScrolledWindow(parent=SampleApp, controller = SampleApp.container)
it says:
SampleApp has no attribute 'container'
I´m very curious about the answer of this puzzle.
Thanks in advance.

After a lot of try and error I found a solution:
The Idea is to do a complete class with frame --> canvas --> desired frame outside the SampleApp and send it to the constructor loop:
This is the code to build a scrolled frame window inside the main class in a loop (after that you can change "Page_with_Scrooll_bar" to "PageOne" as I've asked in question):
