How to get the value of the field for MDTextField input in KivyMD?

Time:01-22

I use kivymd. How can I get the value from MDTextField with id: sum, when clicking on the button with id: bt2. I created the def show function, which should take this very value, and tried to implement its work, but something does not work (

I rummaged through the documentation, but I didn't find an explanation (maybe I just didn't understand). Help please

CodePudding user response:

This code will print the text of object summ when you press that button. I changed the .kv files to load_string but that is just for convenience in this forum and not a recommendation. The key is to link Python objects to Kivy objects at the top of the object definition. Specifically, these lines:

# Python: Kivy
summ: summ
bt2: bt2

and here is the full code.
