Kivy Catalog¶
The Kivy Catalog viewer showcases widgets available in Kivy and allows interactive editing of kivy language code to get immediate feedback.

You can edit the left pane, though changes will be lost when you use the menu spinner button. The catalog will show you dozens of .kv examples controlling different widgets and layouts.

Kivy Catalog
============
The Kivy Catalog viewer showcases widgets available in Kivy
and allows interactive editing of kivy language code to get immediate
feedback. You should see a two panel screen with a menu spinner button
(starting with 'Welcome') and other controls across the top.The left pane
contains kivy (.kv) code, and the right side is that code rendered. You can
edit the left pane, though changes will be lost when you use the menu
spinner button. The catalog will show you dozens of .kv examples controlling
different widgets and layouts.
The catalog's interface is set in the file kivycatalog.kv, while the
interfaces for each menu option are set in containers_kvs directory. To
add a new .kv file to the Kivy Catalog, add a .kv file into the container_kvs
directory and reference that file in the ScreenManager section of
kivycatalog.kv.
Known bugs include some issue with the drop

The entire interface for the Catalog is defined in kivycatalog.kv,

To add a container to the catalog,
first create the .kv file in container_kvs
The name of the file (sans .kv) will be the name of the widget available
inside the kivycatalog.kv
Finally modify kivycatalog.kv to add an AccordionItem
to hold the new widget.
Follow the examples in kivycatalog.kv to ensure the item
has an appropriate id and the class has been referenced.
You do not need to edit any python code, just .kv language files!
