I am trying to use kivy scrollview inside of EmployeeScreen class. it will not scroll!? what am I doing wrong? I hope this is not a duplicate, please help. I went to this link Kivy ScrollView - Not Scrolling. which seems to be the only question relating to kivy scrollview not scrolling. this didn't solve my problem.
.py file:
`from kivy.app import App

from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.stacklayout import StackLayout
from kivy.uix.floatlayout import FloatLayout
from kivy.uix.gridlayout import GridLayout
class LogInScreen(Screen):
pass
class EmployeeScreen(Screen):
pass
class Manager(ScreenManager):
login_screen = ObjectProperty(None)
employee_screen = ObjectProperty(None)
class CptApp(App):
icon = 'Images\login\cptlogo.png'
title = 'CPT'
def build(self):
return Manager()
if __name__=='__main__':
CptApp().run()`

I was trying to use GridLayout in my .kv file, wrong, I had to create a class and override its init.
then I placed the class in the .kv file where GridLayout was.
