Add widget dynamically from outside class (error)

I´m learning kivy, and it has passed 3 weeks since i face this problem without encounter a solution, so i hope any of u guys could help me, i would appreciate it.
I have a main file:
from app import MyProgramApp
if __name__ == "__main__":
winapp = MyProgramApp()
winapp.run()
from where i start my app. Then i have a directory called "app", inside there is the following "init.py" file.
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.utils import QueryDict, rgba
from kivy.core.window import Window
from .view import MainWindow
Window.minimum_width = 500
Window.minimum_height = 650
Window.maximize()
class MyProgramApp(App):
colors = QueryDict()
colors.primary = rgba('#2D9CDB')
colors.secondary = rgba('#16213E')
colors.succes = rgba('#1FC98E')
colors.warning = rgba('#F2C94C')
colors.danger = rgba('#E85757')
colors.grey_dark = rgba('#C4C4C4')
colors.grey_light = rgba('#F5F5F5')
colors.black = rgba('#A1A1A1')
colors.white = rgba('#FFFFFF')
def build(self):
return MainWindow()
Same folder app, i have the following "view.py".
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.behaviors import ToggleButtonBehavior
from kivy.properties import StringProperty
from kivy.uix.screenmanager import ScreenManager
class MainWindow(BoxLayout):
username = StringProperty("Usuario")
def __init__(self, **kw):
super().__init__(**kw)
def on_press_home(self):
self.ids.scrn_mngr.current = "scrn_home"
class ViewManager(ScreenManager):
def __init__(self, **kw):
super().__init__(**kw)
class NavTab(ToggleButtonBehavior, BoxLayout):
text = StringProperty('')
icon = StringProperty('')
def __init__(self, **kw):
super().__init__(**kw)
and finally for that folder i have "myprogram.kv"

Then i got another folder called "views" inside i have another folder called "home", inside home we encounter 3 files "init.py", "home.kv", "home.py". the first one "init.py" is the following.
from .home import Home
then we got "home.kv".
#:kivy 2.1.0
<Home>:

Label:
text: "Some text"
Button:
text: "create buttons on box"
on_press: root.modify_home_box()
and finally and the problem that i´m facing is whit the following file "home.py"
from kivy.lang import Builder
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.factory import Factory
from kivy.uix.popup import Popup
from kivy.uix.button import Button
from kivy.app import App
Builder.load_file('views/home/home.kv')
class Home(BoxLayout):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
def open_popup(self):
Factory.SomePopup().open()
class SomePopup(Popup):
def __init__(self, **kw):
super().__init__(**kw)
def modify_home_box(self):
my_app = App.get_running_app().root
my_box = my_app.ids.home.ids.home_box
custom_button = Button(
text = "something"
)
my_box.add_widget(custom_button)
That i´m trying to do is actually modify "home_box" with is store on ids Home dictionary, i also try with ObjectProperty (but that gives and Attribute Error, since i only could read propertys but doesnt modify it), instance of a new Home class doesnt work... searching for current app in App appear doesnt work since Home is store i think on screenManager...
I need add a button or some widget to "home_box" from outside class "SomePopup". I also drop here a repository on github with the whole code. github_repo
I don't know how to solve my issue, and i try with the resources available here on stack as well other net places... any help would be appreciate.

Just a very complicated path to the widget of interest. In your modify_home_box() method, try replacing:
my_app = App.get_running_app().root
my_box = my_app.ids.home.ids.home_box
with:
my_app = App.get_running_app().root
my_box = my_app.ids.scrn_mngr.ids.home.ids.home_box

Wrong screen showing after start with ScreenManager

I am trying to code a simple quiz game. There're supposed to be multiple screens, the first screen (LoginWindow) being a simple login form. After the login and confirmation of the right name and password being entered the second screen (GameWindow) is supposed to show up, but it doesn't. Right from the start the second screen is being loaded.
I'm sure I am missing something super simple and basic but I just don't get it.

Questions:
How do I get the value from this so that I can pass the value instead of the hardcoded username of abc999
MDTextField:
id: username_input
How do I send to the given screen (user_management here) from
def set_current_user(self,user,sm):
self.current_user = user
# Send over to given screen
# ???? = sm
You can toggle commenting on the two on_release below to see the issue
MDFlatButton(
text="OK",
theme_text_color="Custom",
text_color=self.theme_cls.primary_color,
#on_release=self.set_current_user(user,screen)
on_release=self.dialog_close

You can do what you want by modifying set_current_user() to:
def set_current_user(self, button):
self.current_user = self.dialog.content_cls.ids.username_input.text
self.dialog_close()
self.root.ids.users.add_widget(Label(text=self.current_user))
sm = self.root.ids.screenManager
sm.current = 'user_management'
The above code requires the addition of an id to the UserManagerment in the kv:
UserManagement:
id: users
This just adds a new Label with the name of the user.

Spinner, ToggleButton store value and print when pressing Button

I'm pretty new to python and kivy and I'm trying to build my first app for my masterthesis. The problem I'm struggeling with right now is that I have multiple python and kivy files, and my app includes a group of Toggle buttons and Spinners. I want to 'store'/assign theselected values and print them when i hit my submit button. I'm working with multiple python and kivy files. The app also has some sliders and i managed to get those values when pressing submit, but can't figure it out for toggles nor spinners. I hope you can help!:)

and last but not the least the file that includes the methods that are assigned to the buttons, which shuld also be important for my issue:
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.properties import ObjectProperty
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.lang import Builder
class StatusBar(BoxLayout):
group_mode = False
#translation = ListProperty(None)
prozess = ObjectProperty(None)
vorbehandlung = ObjectProperty(None)
material = ObjectProperty(None)
haerte = ObjectProperty(None)
rauheit = ObjectProperty(None)
def btn_submit(self,text):
ip = App.get_running_app().root.ids._input_parameters
print("Haerte:", ip.haerte.value, "Rauheit:", ip.rauheit.value, "Material:", ip.material.text)
def btn_clear(self):
np = App.get_running_app().root.ids._input_parameters
np.prozess1.state = "normal"
np.prozess2.state = "normal"
np.prozess3.state = "normal"
np.material.text = "Auswahl treffen"
np.haerte.value = 55
np.rauheit.value = 5.5
The App is running like this and the clear button is exactly doing what its supposed to do, but I really can't figure out how I manage to print the selected spinner and toggle values when hitting submit...I hope you guys can help, been struggeling with this since a while now. Thanks in advance!

Alright i figured out an easy way to get the spinner value when hititng submit:
def btn_submit(self):
ip = App.get_running_app().root.ids._input_parameters
print("Haerte:", ip.haerte.value, "Rauheit:", ip.rauheit.value, "Material:", ip.material.text, "Vorbehandlung:", ip.vorbehandlung.text)
to get the value of the toggle buttons i did this:
def on_state(self, togglebutton):
tb = togglebutton
if tb.state == 'down':
self.verfahren = tb.text
InputParameters.verfahren = tb.text
print(self.verfahren)
return InputParameters.verfahren
and added in the .kv file for the toggle button:
ToggleButton:
id:_prozess2
text:'E-MOH'
on_state: root.on_state(self)
I'm getting the value/state like that, but it's not triggered with the submit button, can't figure out how to do so

Why is Screens not loading in Kv Language?

I have an App with three toggle buttons in a fixed header that is an outside indented layout for screen manager. On initialisation, the Import screen must show i.e. self.ids.scrn_man.current = 'import_scn" and when a toggle button is pushed a next screen should show i.e. on_state: scrn_man.current = "settings_scrn".
But for some reason, only the header is showing and the screens do not want to transition. I don't get any errors.
I tried different layouts as my Apps main class inheritance including, FloatLayout, StackLayout and BoxLayout. I also made the header fixed with AnchorLayout and use a different layout as the inline layout for ScreenManager. If I remove the ScreenManager I see my widgets, but of course, I cannot transition. I did at first try using TabbedPanel to house my different widgets but I encountered a constant RefError: weak object reference if I added too many widgets (but that's not for now). So I re-designed with something I knew worked on a previous App albeit less complex.
Here is my faulty code:

I expect that the import screen must show on initialisation and screens transition on toggle button state: down. Can someone please give me some advice on how to make my App act as explained above?

Your screens are loading correctly according to your settings. You need to review your entire kv string looking at your size_hint settings. Check each item that contains children and make sure that the total of size_hint_x for its children is less than or equal to 1.0 and the same for size_hint_y.
