from kivy.app import App from kivy.uix.scrollview import ScrollView from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout from kivy.uix.label import Label class ScrollViewApp(App): def build(self): scroll_view = ScrollView(size_hint=(0.8, 0.8), size=(400, 400)) # Create container widget container = BoxLayout(orientation='vertical', size_hint_y=None) # Set height of the container widget to # match the number of labels container.bind(minimum_height=container.setter('height')) # Add content to container widget for i in range(50): label = Label(text=f"Codeloop.org {i}", size_hint=(1, None), height=30) container.add_widget(label) # Add container widget to the ScrollView scroll_view.add_widget(container) return scroll_view ScrollViewApp().run() |
The code imports necessary modules and classes from Kivy, It defines a class at name of ScrollViewApp that inherits from App, and overrides the build() method to create the application UI. After that it creates a ScrollView widget with a fixed size and a BoxLayout container to hold multiple Label widgets. The container height adjusts dynamically based on its content, and 50 labels are added to it with the text Codeloop.org followed by a number. And lastly the container is added to the ScrollView, and the application is run.
Run the code and this will be the result
