_images/anchorlayout.gif

The AnchorLayout aligns its children to a border (top, bottom, left, right) or center.

To draw a button in the lower-right corner:

layout = AnchorLayout(
    anchor_x='right', anchor_y='bottom')
btn = Button(text='Hello World')
layout.add_widget(btn)
class kivy.uix.anchorlayout.AnchorLayout(**kwargs)

Bases: kivy.uix.layout.Layout

Anchor layout class. See the module documentation for more information.

do_layout(*largs)

This function is called when a layout is called by a trigger. If you are writing a new Layout subclass, don’t call this function directly but use _trigger_layout() instead.

The function is by default called before the next frame, therefore the layout isn’t updated immediately. Anything depending on the positions of e.g. children should be scheduled for the next frame.

New in version 1.0.8.
