I am trying to center text in kivy. I tried using halign="center" like so:
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.widget import Widget
from kivy.uix.label import CoreLabel
from kivy.graphics import Rectangle, Color
from kivy.core.window import Window
class MyWidget(Widget):
def __init__(self, **kwargs):
super().__init__(**kwargs)
Window.clearcolor = (1, 1, 1, 1)
self.canvas.clear()
with self.canvas:
Color(0, 0, 0, 1)
label = CoreLabel(text="Text", font_size=50, halign="center")
label.refresh()
text = label.texture
Rectangle(size=text.size, pos=(865, 30), texture=text)
class MyApp(App):
def build(self):
return MyWidget()
if __name__ == "__main__":
MyApp().run()
But that doesn't center the text around the given position (it is still left aligned). If I change the length of the text (and therefore its size), its position doesn't change, even though I want it to.
