How can I do the search function depends on what I type in the textfield? If the text I type in the textfield is equal to the RecycleView data['name'], how to make that only widget show?

  • Try accessing the children of the Layout by using the .children property of widget, it should return a list of the children. – Yash Kolekar Jan 09 '21 at 06:50
  • How to accessing the children? Using "self.root.ids.rv.data.children"? –  Jan 09 '21 at 11:11
  • Just iterate through `self.root.ids['rv'].children` in a for loop, the statement itself give u a `list` of the widget's children – Yash Kolekar Jan 09 '21 at 14:42
