Using KivyMD and I would like to add MDLabel using add_widget() I would like to set the size to

width = self.texture_size[0] 
height = self.texture_size[1]

Here is the rest of my code for the label.

            card.add_widget(MDLabel(
                text="Name: " + r[1],
                bold= True,
                size_hint=(None, None),
                halign="center",
                pos_hint={"center_y": .8}
            ))

How can I set width and height to self of the object I am creating as self in this case will refer to the main app?

Change the size of a MDLabel from a python code rather than a kv file.

What version of kivymd are you using ? – ApuCoder Mar 29 '22 at 20:25
Version: 1.0.0.dev0 – swingline Mar 29 '22 at 21:01
You can use prop. `adaptive_size`. If that does [not work](https://github.com/kivymd/KivyMD/issues/1096) properly, try binding. – ApuCoder Mar 29 '22 at 21:30
Thanks for the suggestion. What do you mean by try binding? – swingline Mar 30 '22 at 12:41
Did you try with `adaptive_size`? – ApuCoder Mar 30 '22 at 15:34
Yes that, does the trick thank you. But it turns out it only helped me uncover my bigger problem, I need to learn how to add a MDRelativeLayout to the MDCard that i am creating in python code and not the KV file. – swingline Mar 30 '22 at 17:54
