mark up weird behavior

[maxi ichazo]

Hello,

I’m struggling with a very simple thing. I’ve read the documentation and searched in Google but couldn’t find a solution.

I’ve got a text in a Button with some mark up portions. It works fine for the first mark up instruction, but not for the rest of the mark up instruction.

Below  is a simple code that it’s not working on my machine (Windows 10 – Python 3.7 with latest Kivy version). If someone can help, it would be great!

 

Thank you,

 

Maxi

from kivy.app import App

from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout

from kivy.lang import Builder

kv = """

<Label>:

    markup: True

    color: 0,0,0,1

<MyWidget>:

    orientation: 'vertical'    

    Button:

        text: 'This work [color=FF0000]but not this[/color]'

    Button:

        text: '[color=FF0000]This work[/color] but not this'

    Button:

        text: '[b]working[/b]not working'

"""    

Builder.load_string(kv)    

class MyWidget(BoxLayout):

    pass

class MyButtonsApp(App):

    def build(self):

        return MyWidget()    

if __name__ == '__main__':

    MyButtonsApp().run()

Well, it does work..

E.g. to make the whole text red, you have to enclose all of it between the markup tag (here the color one)

'[color=FF0000]This work and this too[/color]'

I haven't explained well the issue. I want parts with mark ups and parts in normal text. The issue is that after using the first part with markups, the second part does not appear on the screen (or it is not visible).

For example:

text: '[color=FF0000]This work[/color] but not this'

I only can see the part "This work" while the second part is not on visible.

Same thing if I use [b] or change the fonts.

It works for me.  I would recommend adding a ‘-‘ as below:

<Label>:
    -markup: True
    -color: 0,0,0,1

Finally, I couldn't make it work. In my last attempt I've unistalled kivy and reinstalled everything and ---voilà!!! it worked.

Thank you
