Description
-----------

Base class for all UI-related nodes. **Control** features a bounding rectangle that defines its extents, an anchor position relative to its parent control or the current viewport, and offsets relative to the anchor. The offsets update automatically when the node, any of its parents, or the screen size change.

For more information on Godot's UI system, anchors, offsets, and containers, see the related tutorials in the manual. To build flexible UIs, you'll need a mix of UI elements that inherit from **Control** and :ref:`Container<class_Container>` nodes.

\ **Note:** Since both :ref:`Node2D<class_Node2D>` and **Control** inherit from :ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>`, they share several concepts from the class such as the :ref:`CanvasItem.z_index<class_CanvasItem_property_z_index>` and :ref:`CanvasItem.visible<class_CanvasItem_property_visible>` properties.

\ **User Interface nodes and input**\ 

Godot propagates input events via viewports. Each :ref:`Viewport<class_Viewport>` is responsible for propagating :ref:`InputEvent<class_InputEvent>`\ s to their child nodes. As the :ref:`SceneTree.root<class_SceneTree_property_root>` is a :ref:`Window<class_Window>`, this already happens automatically for all UI elements in your game.

Input events are propagated through the :ref:`SceneTree<class_SceneTree>` from the root node to all child nodes by calling :ref:`Node._input()<class_Node_private_method__input>`. For UI elements specifically, it makes more sense to override the virtual method :ref:`_gui_input()<class_Control_private_method__gui_input>`, which filters out unrelated input events, such as by checking z-order, :ref:`mouse_filter<class_Control_property_mouse_filter>`, focus, or if the event was inside of the control's bounding box.

Call :ref:`accept_event()<class_Control_method_accept_event>` so no other node receives the event. Once you accept an input, it becomes handled so :ref:`Node._unhandled_input()<class_Node_private_method__unhandled_input>` will not process it.

Only one **Control** node can be in focus. Only the node in focus will receive events. To get the focus, call :ref:`grab_focus()<class_Control_method_grab_focus>`. **Control** nodes lose focus when another node grabs it, or if you hide the node in focus.

Sets :ref:`mouse_filter<class_Control_property_mouse_filter>` to :ref:`MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE<class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE>` to tell a **Control** node to ignore mouse or touch events. You'll need it if you place an icon on top of a button.

\ :ref:`Theme<class_Theme>` resources change the control's appearance. The :ref:`theme<class_Control_property_theme>` of a **Control** node affects all of its direct and indirect children (as long as a chain of controls is uninterrupted). To override some of the theme items, call one of the ``add_theme_*_override`` methods, like :ref:`add_theme_font_override()<class_Control_method_add_theme_font_override>`. You can also override theme items in the Inspector.

\ **Note:** Theme items are *not* :ref:`Object<class_Object>` properties. This means you can't access their values using :ref:`Object.get()<class_Object_method_get>` and :ref:`Object.set()<class_Object_method_set>`. Instead, use the ``get_theme_*`` and ``add_theme_*_override`` methods provided by this class.

:ref:`MouseFilter<enum_Control_MouseFilter>` **MOUSE_FILTER_STOP** = ``0``

The control will receive mouse movement input events and mouse button input events if clicked on through :ref:`_gui_input()<class_Control_private_method__gui_input>`. The control will also receive the :ref:`mouse_entered<class_Control_signal_mouse_entered>` and :ref:`mouse_exited<class_Control_signal_mouse_exited>` signals. These events are automatically marked as handled, and they will not propagate further to other controls. This also results in blocking signals in other controls.

.. _class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_PASS:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`MouseFilter<enum_Control_MouseFilter>` **MOUSE_FILTER_PASS** = ``1``

The control will receive mouse movement input events and mouse button input events if clicked on through :ref:`_gui_input()<class_Control_private_method__gui_input>`. The control will also receive the :ref:`mouse_entered<class_Control_signal_mouse_entered>` and :ref:`mouse_exited<class_Control_signal_mouse_exited>` signals.

If this control does not handle the event, the event will propagate up to its parent control if it has one. The event is bubbled up the node hierarchy until it reaches a non-:ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>`, a control with :ref:`MOUSE_FILTER_STOP<class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_STOP>`, or a :ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>` with :ref:`CanvasItem.top_level<class_CanvasItem_property_top_level>` enabled. This will allow signals to fire in all controls it reaches. If no control handled it, the event will be passed to :ref:`Node._shortcut_input()<class_Node_private_method__shortcut_input>` for further processing.

.. _class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE:

.. rst-class:: classref-enumeration-constant

:ref:`MouseFilter<enum_Control_MouseFilter>` **MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE** = ``2``

The control will not receive any mouse movement input events nor mouse button input events through :ref:`_gui_input()<class_Control_private_method__gui_input>`. The control will also not receive the :ref:`mouse_entered<class_Control_signal_mouse_entered>` nor :ref:`mouse_exited<class_Control_signal_mouse_exited>` signals. This will not block other controls from receiving these events or firing the signals. Ignored events will not be handled automatically. If a child has :ref:`MOUSE_FILTER_PASS<class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_PASS>` and an event was passed to this control, the event will further propagate up to the control's parent.

\ **Note:** If the control has received :ref:`mouse_entered<class_Control_signal_mouse_entered>` but not :ref:`mouse_exited<class_Control_signal_mouse_exited>`, changing the :ref:`mouse_filter<class_Control_property_mouse_filter>` to :ref:`MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE<class_Control_constant_MOUSE_FILTER_IGNORE>` will cause :ref:`mouse_exited<class_Control_signal_mouse_exited>` to be emitted.

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- |void| **set_scale**\ (\ value\: :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>`\ )
- :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` **get_scale**\ (\ )

The node's scale, relative to its :ref:`size<class_Control_property_size>`. Change this property to scale the node around its :ref:`pivot_offset<class_Control_property_pivot_offset>`. The Control's tooltip will also scale according to this value.

\ **Note:** This property is mainly intended to be used for animation purposes. To support multiple resolutions in your project, use an appropriate viewport stretch mode as described in the :doc:`documentation <../tutorials/rendering/multiple_resolutions>` instead of scaling Controls individually.

\ **Note:** :ref:`FontFile.oversampling<class_FontFile_property_oversampling>` does *not* take **Control** :ref:`scale<class_Control_property_scale>` into account. This means that scaling up/down will cause bitmap fonts and rasterized (non-MSDF) dynamic fonts to appear blurry or pixelated. To ensure text remains crisp regardless of scale, you can enable MSDF font rendering by enabling :ref:`ProjectSettings.gui/theme/default_font_multichannel_signed_distance_field<class_ProjectSettings_property_gui/theme/default_font_multichannel_signed_distance_field>` (applies to the default project font only), or enabling **Multichannel Signed Distance Field** in the import options of a DynamicFont for custom fonts. On system fonts, :ref:`SystemFont.multichannel_signed_distance_field<class_SystemFont_property_multichannel_signed_distance_field>` can be enabled in the inspector.

\ **Note:** If the Control node is a child of a :ref:`Container<class_Container>` node, the scale will be reset to ``Vector2(1, 1)`` when the scene is instantiated. To set the Control's scale when it's instantiated, wait for one frame using ``await get_tree().process_frame`` then set its :ref:`scale<class_Control_property_scale>` property.

The name of a theme type variation used by this **Control** to look up its own theme items. When empty, the class name of the node is used (e.g. ``Button`` for the :ref:`Button<class_Button>` control), as well as the class names of all parent classes (in order of inheritance).

When set, this property gives the highest priority to the type of the specified name. This type can in turn extend another type, forming a dependency chain. See :ref:`Theme.set_type_variation()<class_Theme_method_set_type_variation>`. If the theme item cannot be found using this type or its base types, lookup falls back on the class names.

\ **Note:** To look up **Control**'s own items use various ``get_theme_*`` methods without specifying ``theme_type``.

\ **Note:** Theme items are looked for in the tree order, from branch to root, where each **Control** node is checked for its :ref:`theme<class_Control_property_theme>` property.

The time required for the tooltip to appear can be changed with the :ref:`ProjectSettings.gui/timers/tooltip_delay_sec<class_ProjectSettings_property_gui/timers/tooltip_delay_sec>` setting.

This string is the default return value of :ref:`get_tooltip()<class_Control_method_get_tooltip>`.

Virtual method to be implemented by the user. Returns a **Control** node that should be used as a tooltip instead of the default one. ``for_text`` is the return value of :ref:`get_tooltip()<class_Control_method_get_tooltip>`.

The returned node must be of type **Control** or Control-derived. It can have child nodes of any type. It is freed when the tooltip disappears, so make sure you always provide a new instance (if you want to use a pre-existing node from your scene tree, you can duplicate it and pass the duplicated instance). When ``null`` or a non-Control node is returned, the default tooltip will be used instead.

The returned node will be added as child to a :ref:`PopupPanel<class_PopupPanel>`, so you should only provide the contents of that panel. That :ref:`PopupPanel<class_PopupPanel>` can be themed using :ref:`Theme.set_stylebox()<class_Theme_method_set_stylebox>` for the type ``"TooltipPanel"`` (see :ref:`tooltip_text<class_Control_property_tooltip_text>` for an example).

\ **Note:** The tooltip is shrunk to minimal size. If you want to ensure it's fully visible, you might want to set its :ref:`custom_minimum_size<class_Control_property_custom_minimum_size>` to some non-zero value.

\ **Note:** The node (and any relevant children) should have their :ref:`CanvasItem.visible<class_CanvasItem_property_visible>` set to ``true`` when returned, otherwise, the viewport that instantiates it will not be able to calculate its minimum size reliably.

\ **Note:** If overridden, this method is called even if :ref:`get_tooltip()<class_Control_method_get_tooltip>` returns an empty string. When this happens with the default tooltip, it is not displayed. To copy this behavior, return ``null`` in this method when ``for_text`` is empty.

\ **Example:** Use a constructed node as a tooltip:


.. tabs::

 .. code-tab:: gdscript

    func _make_custom_tooltip(for_text):
        var label = Label.new()
        label.text = for_text
        return label

 .. code-tab:: csharp

    public override Control _MakeCustomTooltip(string forText)
    {
        var label = new Label();
        label.Text = forText;
        return label;
    }



\ **Example:** Usa a scene instance as a tooltip:


.. tabs::

 .. code-tab:: gdscript

    func _make_custom_tooltip(for_text):
        var tooltip = preload("res://some_tooltip_scene.tscn").instantiate()
        tooltip.get_node("Label").text = for_text
        return tooltip

 .. code-tab:: csharp

    public override Control _MakeCustomTooltip(string forText)
    {
        Node tooltip = ResourceLoader.Load<PackedScene>("res://some_tooltip_scene.tscn").Instantiate();
        tooltip.GetNode<Label>("Label").Text = forText;
        return tooltip;
    }

If ``keep_offset`` is ``true``, offsets aren't updated after this operation.

If ``push_opposite_anchor`` is ``true`` and the opposite anchor overlaps this anchor, the opposite one will have its value overridden. For example, when setting left anchor to 1 and the right anchor has value of 0.5, the right anchor will also get value of 1.

Sets the given callables to be used instead of the control's own drag-and-drop virtual methods. If a callable is empty, its respective virtual method is used as normal.

The arguments for each callable should be exactly the same as their respective virtual methods, which would be:

- ``drag_func`` corresponds to :ref:`_get_drag_data()<class_Control_private_method__get_drag_data>` and requires a :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>`;

|void| **set_offsets_preset**\ (\ preset\: :ref:`LayoutPreset<enum_Control_LayoutPreset>`, resize_mode\: :ref:`LayoutPresetMode<enum_Control_LayoutPresetMode>` = 0, margin\: :ref:`int<class_int>` = 0\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Control_method_set_offsets_preset>`

Sets the offsets to a ``preset`` from :ref:`LayoutPreset<enum_Control_LayoutPreset>` enum. This is the code equivalent to using the Layout menu in the 2D editor.

Use parameter ``resize_mode`` with constants from :ref:`LayoutPresetMode<enum_Control_LayoutPresetMode>` to better determine the resulting size of the **Control**. Constant size will be ignored if used with presets that change size, e.g. :ref:`PRESET_LEFT_WIDE<class_Control_constant_PRESET_LEFT_WIDE>`.

Use parameter ``margin`` to determine the gap between the **Control** and the edges.

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_position**\ (\ position\: :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>`, keep_offsets\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Control_method_set_position>`

Sets the :ref:`position<class_Control_property_position>` to given ``position``.

If ``keep_offsets`` is ``true``, control's anchors will be updated instead of offsets.

.. _class_Control_method_set_size:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **set_size**\ (\ size\: :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>`, keep_offsets\: :ref:`bool<class_bool>` = false\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Control_method_set_size>`

Sets the size (see :ref:`size<class_Control_property_size>`).

If ``keep_offsets`` is ``true``, control's anchors will be updated instead of offsets.

.. _class_Control_method_update_minimum_size:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **update_minimum_size**\ (\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Control_method_update_minimum_size>`

Invalidates the size cache in this node and in parent nodes up to top level. Intended to be used with :ref:`get_minimum_size()<class_Control_method_get_minimum_size>` when the return value is changed. Setting :ref:`custom_minimum_size<class_Control_property_custom_minimum_size>` directly calls this method automatically.

.. _class_Control_method_warp_mouse:

.. rst-class:: classref-method

|void| **warp_mouse**\ (\ position\: :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>`\ ) :ref:`🔗<class_Control_method_warp_mouse>`

Moves the mouse cursor to ``position``, relative to :ref:`position<class_Control_property_position>` of this **Control**.

\ **Note:** :ref:`warp_mouse()<class_Control_method_warp_mouse>` is only supported on Windows, macOS and Linux. It has no effect on Android, iOS and Web.
