Immediately after the super() function is called, it creates a duplicate WidgetClass instance.
My understanding of the super() I've used is that it refers to the EditImageLayout class to inherit from. To this end I've tried to implement different variations of the super() but admittedly I'm only guessing at this stage.
Updated to full working, I've cut out a few hundred lines

Console output, aka what the code prints (you can see that ImageLayout and CoreImage run twice)
EditImageScreen
enable_cropping
on_pre_enter
EditImageLayout
ImageLayout
CoreImage
ImageLayout
CoreImage
What I suspect is happening is that the super() is calling the base class EditImageLayout, the static elements of that base class are calling the .kv file and initating the ImageLayout and CoreImage classes from there. At the same time, "self" goes into action and does the exact same thing. This causes trouble later on when I implement on_touch_down over it (on_touch_down then appears twice, etc. )
Problem
ImageLayout and CoreImage were called twice.
[INFO ] [GL ] Unpack subimage support is available
enable_cropping
on_pre_enter
EditImageLayout
ImageLayout
CoreImage
ImageLayout
CoreImage
[INFO ] [Base ] Leaving application in progress...
Process finished with exit code 0
Root Cause
The double calls to ImageLayout and CoreImage were due to two kv files, App_R3.kv and app_r3.kv present as shown in the screen shots below. In the application, the app class is App_R3App(App): and it is using Builder.load_file('App_R3.kv') to load kv code into application.
Solution
Remove kv file, app_r3.kv. In the example, we renamed it to app_r3-off.kv
Kv language » How to load KV
There are two ways to load Kv code into your application:
By name convention:
Kivy looks for a Kv file with the same name as your App class in
lowercase, minus “App” if it ends with ‘App’ e.g:
MyApp -> my.kv
If this file defines a Root Widget it will be attached to the App’s
root attribute and used as the base of the application widget tree.
By Builder:
You can tell Kivy to directly load a string or a file. If this string
or file defines a root widget, it will be returned by the method:
Builder.load_file('path/to/file.kv')
or:
Builder.load_string(kv_string)
Recommendations
Since class rule, <MyScreenManager>: is defined in your kv file, you should use it rather than define sm = ScreenManager() in your Python code. On top of that, keep the view/design separate.
kv file
Add missing class rule for EditImageScreen.
<EditImageScreen>:
name: '_edit_image_screen_'
<EditImageLayout>:
Python code
Add class definition for MyScreenManager
In build() method, replace return sm with return MyScreenManager()
Before App_R3().run(), remove all references to sm
Since each screen has by default a property manager that gives you the instance of the ScreenManager used. In callback_image() and enable_cropping() methods, replace sm.current with self.manager.current
In __init__() method of EditImageLayout() class, remove self.sm = kwargs.pop('sm', None). If you need to access the root/ScreenManager, use sm = App.get_running_app().root

ScreenManager » Basic Usage
Each screen has by default a property manager that gives you the
instance of the ScreenManager used.
I need to set up dynamically list in Drop-Down. For setting I want to use constructor of class DiscDropDown, which is decendant of class DropDown. (It means, that want to set up value for variable li_disc in class DiscDropDown). Instance of this class is not part of python code, because I use Builder.
How do I realize it in next code?
Builder.load_string('''
<Save_As>:
drop_down: drop_down
orientation:'vertical'
DiscDropDown:
id: drop_down
size_hint: None,None
height: 50
Button:
id: bt_delete_file
disabled: False
size_hint: 1,None
height: 250
text: 'Fictive'
''')
class DiscDropDown(DropDown):
def __init__(self, **kwarg):
super(DiscDropDown, self).__init__(**kwarg)
self.dropdown = DropDown()
# I wanted to set up value Button.text during creation Buttons
for name in li_disc:
btn = Button(text = name, size_hint_y=None, height=44)
btn.bind(on_release=lambda btn: self.dropdown.select(btn.text))
self.dropdown.add_widget(btn)
mainbutton = Button(text='Disc', size_hint=(None, None),size = (50,50))
mainbutton.bind(on_release = self.dropdown.open)
self.dropdown.bind(on_select=lambda instance, x: setattr(mainbutton, 'text', x))
self.add_widget(mainbutton)
class Save_As(BoxLayout):
# drop_down = ObjectProperty()
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super(Save_As, self).__init__( **kwargs)
return
class ExplorerApp(App):
def build(self):
self.save_as = Save_As()
return self.save_as
if __name__ == '__main__':
ExplorerApp().run()
For solving my problem I used next process for setting value variable Button.text:
class Save_As(BoxLayout):
drop_down = ObjectProperty()
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
li_disc = ['aa','bb','cc']
super(Save_As, self).__init__( **kwargs)
# I set up Button.text here
for i in range(0,3):
self.children[1].dropdown.children[0].children[i].text = li_disc[i]
return
I think that my solution isn't ideal, cann you recommend me better process?
I'm trying to convert this kv code into my own class
<BaseScreen>: # This is GridLayout
cols: 4
rows: 4
padding: 25
Button:
size_hint_x: None
size_hint_y: None
Image:
source: "business_bookcover.png"
x: self.parent.x
y: self.parent.y
width: self.parent.width
height: self.parent.height
keep_ratio: False
The problem is that I'm trying to make "clickable image", but when I append widget to the button, image is on the default position (0,0), totally out of the button position. Is there any workaround how to do it?
This is my try
class Book(Button):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
self.size_hint = (None, None)
book_cover_image_source = kwargs.get('cover') or BLANK_BOOK_COVER
book_cover = Image(source=book_cover_image_source)
book_cover.pos = self.pos
book_cover.width = self.width
book_cover.height = self.height
book_cover.allow_stretch = True
book_cover.keep_ratio = False
self.add_widget(book_cover)
In kv languaje properties used in the expression (x:, y:, width:) will be observed. When the parent's size/pos change, child widget change accordingly. You must suply this event bindings in the Python class:
class Book(Button):
def __init__(self, cover=BLANK_BOOK_COVER, **kwargs):
super(Book, self).__init__(**kwargs)
self.size_hint = (None, None)
self.book_cover = Image(source=cover)
self.book_cover.allow_stretch = True
self.book_cover.keep_ratio = False
self.add_widget(self.book_cover)
def on_size(self, *args):
self.book_cover.size = self.size
def on_pos(self, *args):
self.book_cover.pos = self.pos
A simpler option to get a clickable image is to have your class Book inherit from ButtonBehabior and Image classes:
from kivy.uix.behaviors import ButtonBehavior
from kivy.uix.image import Image
class Book(ButtonBehavior, Image):
def __init__(self, cover=BLANK_BOOK_COVER, **kwargs):
super(Book, self).__init__(**kwargs)
self.source = cover
self.size_hint = (None, None)
self.allow_stretch = True
self.keep_ratio = False
I'm new for python and kivy, and struggling with them.
I wanted to implement drag and drop function (a function that when a image is dragged to another image and dropped on it, do something.) with kivy.
What I want to do are the following three things;
know the id of the element that the user has been holding now.
know the id of the element that the user is on hover.
know the id of the element which was under the pointer when the user has dropped what he had.
I thought this would be useful to deal with them, so I wrote down the python script and .kivy file following. However, it dosen't work as I intended.
there are many problems which I don't know how to solve;
print(self.id) returns None.
Even though I am dragging only 1 element, on_touch_up prints None twice.
once you dragged and dropped a image, the image cannot be dragged anymore.

Related: Kivy: understanding widget instances in apps
I am initializing my app with 2 widget instances, the (.kv) file is as follows:
#:kivy 1.0.9
<GraphInterface>:
node: graph_node
edge: graph_edge
GraphNode:
id: graph_node
center: self.parent.center
GraphEdge:
id: graph_edge
center: 150,200
<GraphNode>:
size: 50, 50
canvas:
Color:
rgba: (root.r,1,1,1)
Ellipse:
pos: self.pos
size: self.size
<GraphEdge>:
size: self.size
canvas:
Color:
rgba: (root.r,1,1,1)
Line:
width: 2.0
close: True
The node and edge objects are defined as follows:
class GraphNode(Widget):
r = NumericProperty(1.0)
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
self.size= [50,50]
self.pos = [175,125]
self.r = 1.0
super(GraphNode, self).__init__(**kwargs)
def on_touch_down(self, touch):
if self.collide_point(*touch.pos):
if touch.grab_current == None:
self.r = 0.6
touch.grab(self)
return True
return super(GraphNode, self).on_touch_down(touch)
def on_touch_move(self, touch):
if touch.grab_current is self:
self.pos=[touch.x-25,touch.y-25]
for widget in self.parent.children:
if isinstance(widget, GraphEdge) and widget.collide_widget(self):
print "collision detected"
widget.snap_to_node(self)
return True
return super(GraphNode, self).on_touch_move(touch)
def on_touch_up(self, touch):
if touch.grab_current is self:
touch.ungrab(self)
self.r = 1.0
# and finish up here
pass
class GraphEdge(Widget):
r = NumericProperty(1.0)
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super(GraphEdge, self).__init__(**kwargs)
with self.canvas:
self.line = Line(points=[100, 200, 200, 200], width = 2.0, close = True)
def snap_to_node(self, node):
if self.collide_widget(node):
print "collision detected"
del self.line.points[-2:]
self.line.points+=node.center
self.size = [math.sqrt(((self.line.points[0]-self.line.points[2])**2 + (self.line.points[1]-self.line.points[3])**2))]*2
self.center = ((self.line.points[0]+self.line.points[2])/2,(self.line.points[1]+self.line.points[3])/2)
return True
pass
Sorry that there is so much code here, I don't know which part is causing the issue though I suspect it is simply the way I am initializing in the (.kv) file.
Key Problem:
When I click on the node the edge changes colour as well, despite the fact they do not share the same colour property. (I also tried renaming the GraphEdge colour property, but the issue still arises).
Below I show the issue, and the expected result (respectively).
You were actually trying to create two edges - one in with self.canvas: in your GraphEdge class (where you did not specified color) and second in your *.kv file (where you did not specified points). So you can remove whole <GraphEdge> in your *.kv file and then expand with self.canvas: like this:
with self.canvas:
Color(self.r, 1, 1, 1)
self.line = Line(points=[100, 200, 200, 200], width = 2.0, close = True)
