on_text_validate runs function twice

[Simon Lindebjerg]

Hi

I'm having a problem with a dynamically created button that's showing up twice

How can I make that stop?

This textinput from the .kv file

TextInput:

    id: addToGroup

    hint_text: 'Start typing a group name'

    on_text_validate: root.gList(self.text, groupBox)

Calls this function

class UserScreen(Screen) :

    def gList(self, input, layout) : #input and layout parameters to assign text and placement

        layout.add_widget(UserScreen.Select())

    class Select(BoxLayout) :

        pass

Which creates this twice

<Select>

    font_name:"OpenSans-Regular"

    Button:

        id: btnOne

        text: "This is text"

        valign: "center"

Is it not possible that the text is being changed again? Please try creating a minimal, runnable example that demonstrates the issue. It's the only way we can verify the problem is not somewhere in your code...
