AspectRatioContainer

Inherits: Container < Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object

Container that preserves its child controls' aspect ratio.

Description

Arranges child controls in a way to preserve their aspect ratio automatically whenever the container is resized. Solves the problem where the container size is dynamic and the contents' size needs to adjust accordingly without losing proportions.

Enumerations

enum StretchMode:

  • STRETCH_WIDTH_CONTROLS_HEIGHT = 0 --- The height of child controls is automatically adjusted based on the width of the container.

  • STRETCH_HEIGHT_CONTROLS_WIDTH = 1 --- The width of child controls is automatically adjusted based on the height of the container.

  • STRETCH_FIT = 2 --- The bounding rectangle of child controls is automatically adjusted to fit inside the container while keeping the aspect ratio.

  • STRETCH_COVER = 3 --- The width and height of child controls is automatically adjusted to make their bounding rectangle cover the entire area of the container while keeping the aspect ratio.

When the bounding rectangle of child controls exceed the container's size and Control.rect_clip_content is enabled, this allows to show only the container's area restricted by its own bounding rectangle.


enum AlignMode:

  • ALIGN_BEGIN = 0 --- Aligns child controls with the beginning (left or top) of the container.

  • ALIGN_CENTER = 1 --- Aligns child controls with the center of the container.

  • ALIGN_END = 2 --- Aligns child controls with the end (right or bottom) of the container.
