ColorPickerButton

Inherits: Button < BaseButton < Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object

A button that brings up a ColorPicker when pressed.

Description

Encapsulates a ColorPicker, making it accessible by pressing a button. Pressing the button will toggle the ColorPicker's visibility.

See also BaseButton which contains common properties and methods associated with this node.

Note: By default, the button may not be wide enough for the color preview swatch to be visible. Make sure to set Control.custom_minimum_size to a big enough value to give the button enough space.

Theme Property Descriptions

Color font_color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

Default text Color of the ColorPickerButton.


Color font_disabled_color = Color(0.9, 0.9, 0.9, 0.3)

Text Color used when the ColorPickerButton is disabled.


Color font_focus_color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

Text Color used when the ColorPickerButton is focused. Only replaces the normal text color of the button. Disabled, hovered, and pressed states take precedence over this color.


Color font_hover_color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

Text Color used when the ColorPickerButton is being hovered.


Color font_outline_color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

The tint of text outline of the ColorPickerButton.


Color font_pressed_color = Color(0.8, 0.8, 0.8, 1)

Text Color used when the ColorPickerButton is being pressed.


int h_separation = 4

The horizontal space between ColorPickerButton's icon and text.


int outline_size = 0

The size of the text outline.

Note: If using a font with FontFile.multichannel_signed_distance_field enabled, its FontFile.msdf_pixel_range must be set to at least twice the value of outline_size for outline rendering to look correct. Otherwise, the outline may appear to be cut off earlier than intended.


Font font

Font of the ColorPickerButton's text.


int font_size

Font size of the ColorPickerButton's text.


Texture2D bg

The background of the color preview rect on the button.


StyleBox disabled

StyleBox used when the ColorPickerButton is disabled.


StyleBox focus

StyleBox used when the ColorPickerButton is focused. The focus StyleBox is displayed over the base StyleBox, so a partially transparent StyleBox should be used to ensure the base StyleBox remains visible. A StyleBox that represents an outline or an underline works well for this purpose. To disable the focus visual effect, assign a StyleBoxEmpty resource. Note that disabling the focus visual effect will harm keyboard/controller navigation usability, so this is not recommended for accessibility reasons.


StyleBox hover

StyleBox used when the ColorPickerButton is being hovered.


StyleBox normal

Default StyleBox for the ColorPickerButton.


StyleBox pressed

StyleBox used when the ColorPickerButton is being pressed.
