Mixing
Kivy Popup Text Wrapping Not Working As Expected
I am trying to write a function that triggers a popup that has a message and a close button on the screen, however I can't seem to get the text to wrap properly. Currently the text stays within a 100 x 100 box (the default size). The button does scale properly however, so I am confused as to what I am doing wrong. Doing self.text_size = self.size seems to work fine in kv language but not in normal Python?
def default_popup(text: str, title: str = 'Warning') -> None:
err_box = BoxLayout(orientation = 'vertical')
err_txt = Label(text = text, font_size = 15)
err_txt.text_size = err_txt.size
err_box.add_widget(err_txt)
close_button = Button(text = "Close")
err_box.add_widget(close_button)
err = Popup(title = title, content = err_box, size_hint = (0.6, 0.4))
close_button.bind(on_release = err.dismiss)
err.open()

You can use CoreLabel to calculate the size needed. Something like:
text_tmp = CoreLabel(text=text, font_size=15)
text_tmp.refresh()
err_txt = Label(text = text, font_size = 15, size_hint=(None, None), size=text_tmp.size))
Just make sure the properties of the CoreLabel are the same as the Label.
