I am new to Kivy. I want my Label to be on the left side, however it stays always in the centre, what I'm doing wrong?
.py `
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.screenmanager import ScreenManager, Screen
from kivy.uix.gridlayout import GridLayout
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.anchorlayout import AnchorLayout
from kivy.uix.label import Label
class Display(BoxLayout):
pass
class Screen_One(Screen):
pass
class Screen_Two(Screen):
pass
class Screen_Three(Screen):
pass
class DemoApp(App):
icon = 'icon.png'
title = 'control panel'
def build(self):
return Display()
if __name__ == '__main__':
DemoApp().run()
Here is a litte snippet of the .kv file.
<Screen_Two>:
name: 'screen_two'
# BoxLayout:
AnchorLayout:
anchor_x: 'left'
anchor_y: 'top'
Label:
text: 'test box position'
Thanks for any answer that is usefull.
The problem is that the default size for a child widget is to fill its parent, so your anchor_x
and anchor_y
have no effect. To fix it, just set the size of your Label
to something reasonable:
<Screen_Two>:
name: 'screen_two'
AnchorLayout:
anchor_x: 'left'
anchor_y: 'top'
Label:
text: 'test box position'
size_hint: (None, None)
size: self.texture_size
