EDIT: Newer versions of KivyMD made some breaking changes to the ScreenManager class. This video is likely outdated now I'll plan to make a new video for this topic.

Hey Erik i'm using the latest version of kivymd copied to the folder where i'm trying to run main.py and main.kv files but i'm getting blank screen. I just tried the MDRoundFlatButton but nothing.
hello Erik... while I'm following your video, .I'm getting an error " kivy.factory.FactoryException: Unknown class " what is the issue here can you or any one tell me how to solve this issue
These tutorials are great. I do have a question though. I have used the example you have provided, but on screen 1 i have added a carousel. The carousel is built from a custom class to populate the images as async image buttons, which is another custom class in itself. The problem is i cannot get the async image buttons to switch to another screen. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hey Ian. I am having trouble referencing the nav_drawer when I create a .kv file which contains my "homescreen" definition, as per the layout, the screen is under screen_manager which is under navigationlayout. Do you know how, in homescreen file I can reference the screen_manager in my main.py file? i have tried on_press: left_action_items: [['menu', lambda x: app.nav_drawer.set_state('open')]] right_action_items: [['face-profile', lambda x: root.nav_drawer2.set_state('open')]]
I can't use the on_touch_move() . touch event . the errors said " TypeError: on_touch_move() missing 1 required positional argument: 'touch'"... What does 'touch' means?how to implement the method. Thanks
I am having error with missing uix_path Please help : ImportError: cannot import name 'uix_path' from 'kivymd' (D:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\envs\inventory\lib\site-packages\kivymd\__init__.py)

Hey Eric! just a quick one.... what code editor are you using? I like the split screen code window + console view.. . just found you on RUclips had no idea this python resource was available and with material design... thanks for the amazing tutorials Awesome!! Subs!!! b.t.w :-)

How did you copy the kivyMD folder into your project? Can you do a video about setting up your environment in pycharm? IGranted this video is two years old this comment will propbably be lost to time
You can now just do `pip install kivymd` and you'll have access to everything. Your comment wasn't lost in time! If you need help check out the Kivy Discord chat.kivy.org
Hello sorry for my question, would you recommend using kivy instead of flutter? Or do you think that making applications in kivy is optimal or favorable compared to flutter? I would greatly appreciate your comment, I don't need a great explanation. Thank you
If you know Python and don't want to learn a new language, go for Kivy. Otherwise, you might look into Flutter instead - Flutter has a larger development team (it's part of Google after all) and a higher user base.
Did this change again? As for me, calling NavigationDrawerIconButton in the kv file gives an error "Class not found".. Looking at this: github.com/HeaTTheatR/KivyMD/wiki/Components-Navigation-Drawer#using-mdnavigationdrawer-has-changed I still do not fully understand how to approach the creation of navigation drawers now. The example seems rather bloated/difficult.
Hmm, looks like it has changed. That's the tough part about using a framework in beta, especially watching tutorial videos. They'll work one day, then be rendered out of date the next.

Check the syntax of your code. I had that error before. It came out because the app object was inherited from kivy and not kivyMD.
