kivy: change background color to white
A simple way is to simply draw a big white rectangle behind your root widget. For instance, in kivy language you could do
<YourRootWidget>:
canvas.before:
Color:
rgba: 1, 1, 1, 1
Rectangle:
pos: self.pos
size: self.size
I think you can also actually directly set the colour that kivy clears the window background with, which is exposed as Window.clearcolor
. You would do this with
from kivy.core.window import Window
Window.clearcolor = (1, 1, 1, 1)
You would probably need to put this before anything else in your app, as it won't affect anything if run after the window has been created.
I have created a module for this purpose. Please check: Details on Github
#Change background color of a kivy layout
#Place the CustomGraphics.py file to a folder
#code starts here
import sys
sys.path.append([path to CustomGraphics.py])
from CustomModules import CustomGraphics
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.label import Label
class TestApp(App):
def build(self):
layout = BoxLayout(orientation='vertical', size=(Window.width, Window.height))
label = Label(text="Remember my name: It's Smruti Ranjan Gochhayat")
layout.add_widget(label)
CustomGraphics.SetBG(layout, bg_color=[1,0,0,1])
return layout
if __name__ == '__main__':
TestApp().run()
#code ends here
I wish it is helpful for some people
