Examples about kivybits HOT 3 CLOSED

I would like to have one more example:
I have a list or a dictionary with a counters in it.
Now i want to create items on the user interface
that display the counters and update them on change
Also you may want to attach the example to the documentation of bind since there is a lack of documentation.

Minor Documentation improvement:
http://kivy.org/docs/api-kivy.uix.layout.html?highlight=layout
should have a link to how to paint a background to it (this one: http://kivy.org/docs/guide/widgets.html?highlight=background#adding-a-background-to-a-layout ), this is a very frequent asked question.

However still there is not clear how to paint a background over lets say a box layout:

with layout_instance.canvas.before:
Color(0, 1, 0, 1) # green; colors range from 0-1 instead of 0-255
self.rect = Rectangle(size=layout_instance.size,
pos=layout_instance.pos)

Does not do the job since it only paints a small rectangle

    c.add_widget(
        AsyncImage(
            source="http://www.everythingzoomer.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Monday-joke-289x277.jpg",
            size_hint= (1, .5),
            pos_hint={'center_x':.5, 'center_y':.5}))

again paints only a small picture and i see no way to scale it, it seems to ignore size.

Hi

1. I believe the GridLayout docs do cover isometric vs. non-isometric via size hints. A grid implies vertical + horizontal dividers, and size_hint can make this non-isometric. You could also look at kivy3dlayout for 3d effects.

2. Background painting had now been covered.

3. The other examples requests are a bit vague and numerous. Please open a ticket per examples with greater detail.
