Put the two buttons in a BoxLayout, put the BoxLayout in the AnchorLayout.

Ask in one of the support forums and I’ll show you an example.

That works but still reaming some spaces in the AnchorLayout where we can not use, aren't we?
Very confuscing

Here is an example:

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.lang import Builder

kv = """
AnchorLayout:
    BoxLayout:
        size_hint: None, None
        size: dp(300), dp(48)
        Button:
            text: 'One'
        Button:
            text: 'Two'
"""


class TwoButtonAnchorViewApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return Builder.load_string(kv)


TwoButtonAnchorViewApp().run()

thanks
Oh, dear brother Elliot Garbus, i mean why not put AnchorLayout's attribution anchor_x: "left" anchor_y: "top" in there? They only work for one item. How to use it for 2 item?

Example: AnchorLayout: anchor_x: "left" anchor_y: "top" Label: id: phonetic font_name: "DejaVuSans.ttf" size_hint: None, None size: 30, 22 color: 0, 0, 0, 1
This is for one item. How about i put 2 in there? which 1 is in the left and bottom , and 1 is in the right top for 1 AnchorLayout?
This is what i am confusing bro.
` AnchorLayout:

                Label:
                    id: phonetic
                    font_name: "DejaVuSans.ttf"
                    size_hint: None, None
                    size: 30, 22
                    color: 0, 0, 0, 1
                    anchor_x: "left"
                    anchor_y: "top" 
                Label:
                    id: phonetic2
                    font_name: "DejaVuSans.ttf"
                    size_hint: None, None
                    size: 30, 22
                    color: 0, 0, 0, 1
                    anchor_x: "right"
                    anchor_y: "bottom"     ` Of course this won't work, because anchor_x and y are AnchorLayout's attribute not Label's. How to make it work ?

pls show me, bro, thanks.

Here are 2 ways to position the widgets the way you would like. One with AnchorLayouts, the other using pos_hints in a FloatLayout.

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.lang import Builder

kv = """
FloatLayout:
    AnchorLayout:
        anchor_x: "left"
        anchor_y: "top" 
        Label:
            id: phonetic
            # font_name: "DejaVuSans.ttf"
            size_hint: None, None
            size: 30, 22
            # color: 0, 0, 0, 1
            text: 'LT'
    AnchorLayout:
        anchor_x: "right"
        anchor_y: "bottom"  
        Label:
            id: phonetic2
            # font_name: "DejaVuSans.ttf"
            size_hint: None, None
            size: 30, 22
            # color: 0, 0, 0, 1
            text: 'BR'
    # or use pos_hints in a FloatLayout or RelativeLayout
    Label:
        size_hint: None, None
        size: 30, 22
        text: 'BL'
        pos_hint: {'bottom':1, 'left': 1}
    Label:
        size_hint: None, None
        size: 30, 22
        text: 'TR'
        pos_hint: {'top':1, 'right': 1}
"""


class TwoButtonAnchorViewApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return Builder.load_string(kv)


TwoButtonAnchorViewApp().run()
