Widgets and Moving Widgets

Widgets are one of the core components of Kivy Hub. They are floating mini applications such as timers, the recipe view and even the main hub that you can usually move around and interact with. Basically, almost every thing on the Kivy Hub screen is a widget.

One of the most important things when using widgets is knowing how to move them around. To do so, you can follow some simple steps.

1. Making a secondary touch

Use your thumb and index finger to make a secondary touch. If you don’t know what that is, check out the documentation on how to interact with widgets.

2. Moving

While hovering over the widget with a secondary touch, move the cursor slowly without exiting the area of the widget until you reach the target destination. When you’re done, simply “release” the secondary touch by making a primary touch.
