Hi guys,

I'm using a kivy over pycharm. I want to install a kivy designer to take advantage of Kivy's visual interface features. I installed the kivydesigner as written in the document with python3 but when I run it, I get an error like the following below ; the popup comes on the screen and closes immediately.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Last line is Turkish. It means "Crushing failure (core breakdown)".

Looks like a segfault - it's a very generic error for compiled code, and would need further investigation.

You're welcome to open an issue about this on the kivy-designer github page, but ultimately I'm afraid the designer is not very actively maintained, and is not in a very usable state even if you get it to work. You're probably better off not using it. On the other hand, one of the reasons for the lack of support is that it isn't at all necessary, don't be afraid to dive in with the normal development tutorials.
