Reset previous screen upon changing screen or clicking on a button

For my game, I would like to to reset a screen when the user changes screen.
I have tried many things such as using the Clock and making a update function, but it never really work. The layout does not change even though I explicitly change it in python.
For example, if I have button that becomes disabled upon release, when I change screen, it should not be disabled anymore This something that has been on my mind for a long time and don't quite get it.
I have three small files for this main.py, screen_manager.kv and main.kv. Sorry for this noob question
main.py

Thanks for you help

Your code provides for disabling the Button, but there is nothing in your code to re-enable it. Once a Button is disabled, it stays that way until something changes changes it. You can add something to your SecondWindow to re-enable the button every time the SecondWindow is displayed. You can use on_enter or on_pre_enter to trigger something to happen whenever that Screen is displayed. like this:
<SecondWindow>:
name: 'second'
on_pre_enter: quiz.ids.butt.disabled = False
Quiz:
id: quiz
FloatLayout:
size: root.width, root.height
pos: 0, 0
Button:
text: "Go back"
pos_hint: {'x': 0.4, 'y': 0.2}
size_hint: 0.6, 0.6
on_release:
app.root.current = 'first'
root.manager.transition.direction = "right"
Note the added id for the Quiz and the added on_pre_enter:. Also needed is a way to reference the Button. I have done that by adding an id to that Button:
<Quiz>:
FloatLayout:
id: thelayout
size: root.width, root.height
canvas.before:
Color:
rgba: 1, 1, 1, 1
Rectangle:
pos: self.pos
size: self.size
Button:
id: butt
text: 'press me'
pos_hint: {'x': 0.0, 'y': 0.2}
size_hint: 0.3, 0.3
on_release: self.disabled = True
Now, everytime before the SecondWindow is displayed, the on_pre_enter: is triggered, and the `Button`` is re-enabled.

Kivy update matplotlib plot

Starting to learn Kivy, I want to create a simple application consisting of a start page (very simple) and a second page where I plot data with a button to delete the old plot and display a new plot.
After some problems to control the size and position of the plot widget, I can show the 2 pages and the buttons. The problem is when I click on the "Update button", a new plot is displayed, but a second figure is added next to the old one. The same kind of problem appears when I return to the second page several times. Do you have any idea on how to reuse the old figure and update/reset it or how to fix this ?
Here is my code :

Thank you !

One method that does work which is a relatively easy fix: if you clear all the child widgets with self.box.clear_widgets() instead of specifying the widget, then call plt.cla() to remove your previous data from the plot, should do what you're after.

Image display blank upon being updated

I am using a timer to update the image on the UI after every second. After starting the UI the first image is being displayed. After the timer thread kicks in to display the next image, the widget is displayed blank (i cannot see the image). I can see the image if i start the index from a different value. I do not have an issue with the images. I am unable to update the image on the UI screen. Can anyone help me figure out the issue?

Setting the GUI properties must be done on the main thread. Conveniently, there is a Clock.schedule_once() method that schedules a call on the main thread after a delay. So, I would suggest modifying part of the DVDemo class as:
class DVDemo(Widget):
message = StringProperty()
image = StringProperty('')
sms = ListProperty()
idx = 0
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super(DVDemo, self).__init__(**kwargs)
self.update_data_index()
def schedule_screens(self):
self.idx = self.idx + 1
Clock.schedule_once(self.update_data_index, 5)
def update_data_index(self, *args):
idx = self.idx
.
.
.
The above code uses Clock.schedule_once() and eliminates the passing of idx among methods, since it is an attribute of the DVDemo instance.

Is there a focus lost event dispatcher for a kivy TextInput?

Problem:
Is there a way to fire an event if a multiline = True TextInput lost its focus?
Background:
I have tried on_touch_up function. But it returns the instances of all my TextInputs, not just the current widget. I tried text_validate_unfocus = False, with the same result.

Desired Result:
Once the focus is lost I want a bubble widget to be added to the top of my root class. This will give the user the option to save, encrypt or delete the TextInput id and text that just lost its focus, to a JSON file.

Problems
Multiple instances of object, Notation. One from build() method (return Notation()) in App class, and another instance created in on_touch_up() method (note = Notation()) whenever on_touch_up event is fired. Those instances created in on_touch_up() method does not has a visible view i.e. it won't show up in the window.
AttributeError: 'ChoiceBubble' object has no attribute 'del_txt_input'
Text in ChoiceBubble not visible i.e. the default text color is white on white background.
Solutions
Use App.get_running_app().root to get the instantiated root.
Replace root.del_txt_input() with app.root.del_txt_input()
Add color: 0, 0, 0, 1 to class rule, <Label>:
Use on_focus event to display BubbleButton
Snippets - kv
<Label>:
color: 0, 0, 0, 1
...
<ChoiceBubble>:
...
BubbleButton:
text: 'Delete'
on_release: app.root.del_txt_input()
Snippets - py file
class TextInput(TextInput):
got_txt = ObjectProperty(None)
def on_focus(self, instance, value):
if not value: # defocused
note = App.get_running_app().root
note.show_bubble()
self.got_txt = note.que_txt_input(self)
Output

The on_focus event will fire when the focus boolean changes.
I have tried on_touch_up function. But it returns the instances of all my TextInputs, not just the current widget.
This is because you didn't write any code that would limit it to the widget you care about, you can do this if you want to.

Kivy Treeview Position Issues

I am trying to create a layout with 2 sections that have a label over each and a view below (TreeView on the left and a window showing details on the right, e.g. "click on this node and see details"). I've got the labels sized and positioned, but when I add the TreeView, instead of fitting under the label, it pushes both labels over, no matter the position.
Here's the current result:
My main.py file--
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.label import Label
from kivy.uix.treeview import TreeView, TreeViewLabel
class MainScreen(BoxLayout):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super(MainScreen, self).__init__(**kwargs)
bridge_view = TreeView(root_options=dict(text='Clients'),
hide_root=False, indent_level=4,
pos_hint={"x": 0, "y": 0},
size_hint=(0.1, 0.5))
clients = {'client1': 'Connection A',
'client2': 'Connection B'}
for client in clients.keys():
node = bridge_view.add_node(TreeViewLabel(text=client))
bridge_name = clients[client]
bridge = bridge_view.add_node(TreeViewLabel(text=bridge_name), node)
self.add_widget(bridge_view)
class ConnectionApp(App):
def build(self):
self.title = 'My Support App'
return MainScreen()
if __name__ == '__main__':
ConnectionApp().run()
This is my kv file--
<Label>:
font_size: 30
<MainScreen>:
Label:
text: "Connections"
size_hint: 0.1, 0.5
pos_hint: {"left": 0.2, "top": 1.2}
color: 1,0,1,1
outline_color: 1,0,1,1
Label:
text: "Modules"
size_hint: 0.1, 0.5
pos_hint: {"right": 0.2, "top": 1.2}
Another thing that seems strange to me was how I had to use pos_hint to get my label spacing to work. As I understand it, these values should be on a scale between 0-1. A tutorial I read indicated as much--
Pos_hint gives a hint at the position, which is measured relatively
between 0 and 1, where 1 is "completely" something and 0 is "not"
something.
Does anyone know why it took using a value greater than 1 for "top" to get these labels at the top? I'm guessing this may be a hint as to why my layout isn't showing up correctly.

TreeView under Labels
The solution is to use GridLayout as child of BoxLayout (root widget, MainScreen), Labels and TreeViews as child of GridLayout. Added an ObjectProperty, container to hook it up to the GridLayout widget (place holder for the TreeView widget) created in the kv file. Please to the example for details.
Example - TreeView under Labels
main.py
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

pos_hint: {'top': 1}
The reason you have to use a value greater than 1 for top because the Label widget's height is 0.5 (size_hint: 0.1, 0.5). The solution to use pos_hint: {'top': 1} is to reduce size_hint_y as shown in the snippets.
In my example, Label's canvas color were added for visualization/demonstration.
