Description

A Viewport creates a different view into the screen, or a sub-view inside another viewport. Children 2D Nodes will display on it, and children Camera 3D nodes will render on it too.

Optionally, a viewport can have its own 2D or 3D world, so they don’t share what they draw with other viewports.

If a viewport is a child of a Control, it will automatically take up its same rect and position, otherwise they must be set manually.

Viewports can also choose to be audio listeners, so they generate positional audio depending on a 2D or 3D camera child of it.

Also, viewports can be assigned to different screens in case the devices have multiple screens.

Finally, viewports can also behave as render targets, in which case they will not be visible unless the associated texture is used to draw.

Member Function Description

  • World find_world ( ) const

Return the 3D world of the viewport, or if no such present, the one of the parent viewport.

Return the 2D world of the viewport.

Return the active 3D camera.

Get the total transform of the viewport.

  • Vector2 get_mouse_position ( ) const

Get the mouse position, relative to the viewport.

  • int get_render_info ( int info )

Get the specific information about the viewport from rendering pipeline.

  • Vector2 get_size_override ( ) const

Get the size override set with set_size_override.

Get the viewport’s texture, for use with various objects that you want to texture with the viewport.

  • RID get_viewport_rid ( ) const

Get the viewport RID from the VisualServer.

  • Rect2 get_visible_rect ( ) const

Return the final, visible rect in global screen coordinates.

  • Variant gui_get_drag_data ( ) const

Returns the drag data from the GUI, that was previously returned by Control.get_drag_data.

  • bool gui_has_modal_stack ( ) const

Returns whether there are shown modals on-screen.

  • bool is_size_override_enabled ( ) const

Get the enabled status of the size override set with set_size_override.

  • bool is_size_override_stretch_enabled ( ) const
