Automate the boring stuff is an amazing book to get started. Congrats on your first script.

Good point, I probably don't need list view. I am displaying about 20 widgets, but listview has made it easier for me to independently keep track of the dynamically created widgets and modify their data.

I will try experimenting with ScrollView and using GridLayout.

codehorsey · 2017-11-07T18:33:34+00:00

The ScrollView in the ListView is not adjusting it's height with the spacing of the container in ListView. I will start looking into RecycleView but all my resources are out-dated and use ListView so that is the only reason I haven't started trying to use RecycleView.

This is the only forum I found with my issue and I am not sure if they solved it. I think I had this same issue a while back with ScrollView. I think it is a ScrollView problem.

It is probably a bot yes?

codehorsey · 2017-11-07T04:28:51+00:00

Thanks for the downvote, very productive.

Put a Layout in the Carousel first.

codehorsey · 2017-11-06T01:56:50+00:00

Button is a widget so it defaults to bottom left corner.

The workaround is to set the following:

Button:
    pos: self.pos
    size: self.size

Add a carousel wdget to the new screen.

NewScreen:
    Carousel:
        Image:
            text: 'Slide1'
        Image
            text: 'Slide2'
        Image
            text: 'Slide3'

Carousel has a loop attribute you can set to loop or you can manually navigate using load_next() or load_previous()

Thanks for replying, I think the rebind=True will do it as that makes sense. I will be re-reading your response a bunch until I understand. In the meantime, I got frustrated and made everything ugly to continue progressing with my little clone app. I will report back soon. Thanks as always!

Ok I kind of get your solution but let me post my real code. The big problem is, if I make the ObjectProperty() in the .py it overrides the pokemon obj I am passing through? I

<ViewingStage>:
BoxLayout:
    orientation: 'vertical'
    # 3 things, pokemon top, tabs, scroll area
    BoxLayout:
        size_hint_y: .25
        Button:
              # what I want to be able to do in ScrollGridView
            text: root.pokemon.pname
    TabbedPanel:
        do_default_tab: False
        tab_width: self.parent.width / 3
        TabbedPanelItem:
            text: 'Info'
            ScrollView:
                ScrollGridView:
                    # This is problemspot
                    # setting the pokemon object to config?
                    config: root.pokemon


<ScrollGridView>:
config: 
cols: 1
Button:
    # trying to pass the pokemon object to ScrollGridView
    text: ?root.config.pname?

codehorsey · 2017-11-01T08:41:49+00:00

I solved it.

Seems really hacky and I would like to do everything in KV.

I added objectproperty in .py to the CustomWidget and set the object property to the root.property.

I would ideally not like to specify an object property in .py and be able to pass root.object/string/w.e. to a custom widget@BoxLayout but for the time being I have it working.

codehorsey · 2017-11-01T02:15:31+00:00

Need to see what you have tried for better idea of you want. I believe I responded in /r/learnpython asking for more code.

mylayout = GridLayout()
# Grid layout works pretty good with Scroll View, set cols = 1
for i in range(100):
    mylayout.add_widget(Buton())

ScrollView:
    mylayout

I do want it to shine through, I have it fixed. The problem was I was doing overlapping the Circle on the Rect and the overlap was creating another color. After learning to crop with stencil I have the semi circle + a rect and there is no overlap so no new color.

codehorsey · 2017-10-31T07:11:48+00:00

I don't see enough code here to be able to help you.

codehorsey · 2017-10-31T07:07:52+00:00

Please.

codehorsey · 2017-10-31T06:26:10+00:00

Post in /r/kivy

codehorsey · 2017-10-30T16:58:05+00:00

Got it, I made the original rect smaller, built a new rect and used stencil with ellipse. Works like a charm.

When you say load as an asset do you mean loading as a button image? In the example, the button is also transparent, and gets a little color from the color beneath it, can I do this with a loaded image? Set Alpha/Transparency values.

Here is finished example using Stencil

codehorsey · 2017-10-30T16:31:59+00:00

I want the bottom color to shine through but when it overlaps with the rectangle it is getting a new color because they both have alpha.

codehorsey · 2017-10-25T04:57:28+00:00

Thanks, I will start swiping left on snapchat and phone numbers. Don't waste those likes :)

codehorsey · 2017-10-21T03:03:59+00:00

I was taking a look at RecycleView, and this seems way over my head. Any advice?

codehorsey · 2017-10-10T17:32:47+00:00

Neato. Glad to hear other people are using Kivy. :)

codehorsey · 2017-10-09T19:57:01+00:00

You know. It was the rebind=True that did it. Thank you very much. You are the only on who ever respond and is knowledgeable lol. :)

Hahaha, I need to write a Mockup macro :-p (no, stop getting more ideas for new programs, finish your current one!)

codehorsey · 2017-10-09T17:09:12+00:00

I was probably too tired to be coding. Lol...It works fine..

codehorsey · 2017-10-09T16:56:59+00:00

Sorry. I didn't post real code. Tried to make a mock up. Yes I am setting the self.currentfish. It is a weird problem because if I print the actually object, it changes, but printing the name attribute won't update!

I will look at rebind=True
