ColorPicker¶

Inherits: VBoxContainer < BoxContainer < Container < Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object

A widget that provides an interface for selecting or modifying a color.

Description¶

A widget that provides an interface for selecting or modifying a color. It can optionally provide functionalities like a color sampler (eyedropper), color modes, and presets.

Note: This control is the color picker widget itself. You can use a ColorPickerButton instead if you need a button that brings up a ColorPicker in a popup.

Signals¶

color_changed ( Color color )

Emitted when the color is changed.

preset_added ( Color color )

Emitted when a preset is added.

preset_removed ( Color color )

Emitted when a preset is removed.

Enumerations¶

enum ColorModeType:

ColorModeType MODE_RGB = 0

Allows editing the color with Red/Green/Blue sliders.

ColorModeType MODE_HSV = 1

Allows editing the color with Hue/Saturation/Value sliders.

ColorModeType MODE_RAW = 2

Allows the color R, G, B component values to go beyond 1.0, which can be used for certain special operations that require it (like tinting without darkening or rendering sprites in HDR).

ColorModeType MODE_OKHSL = 3

Allows editing the color with Hue/Saturation/Lightness sliders.

OKHSL is a new color space similar to HSL but that better match perception by leveraging the Oklab color space which is designed to be simple to use, while doing a good job at predicting perceived lightness, chroma and hue.

Okhsv and Okhsl color spaces

enum PickerShapeType:

PickerShapeType SHAPE_HSV_RECTANGLE = 0

HSV Color Model rectangle color space.

PickerShapeType SHAPE_HSV_WHEEL = 1

HSV Color Model rectangle color space with a wheel.

PickerShapeType SHAPE_VHS_CIRCLE = 2

HSV Color Model circle color space. Use Saturation as a radius.

PickerShapeType SHAPE_OKHSL_CIRCLE = 3

HSL OK Color Model circle color space.

PickerShapeType SHAPE_NONE = 4

The color space shape and the shape select button are hidden. Can't be selected from the shapes popup.

Property Descriptions¶

bool can_add_swatches = true

void set_can_add_swatches ( bool value )
bool are_swatches_enabled ( )

If true, it's possible to add presets under Swatches. If false, the button to add presets is disabled.

Color color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

void set_pick_color ( Color value )
Color get_pick_color ( )

The currently selected color.

ColorModeType color_mode = 0

void set_color_mode ( ColorModeType value )
ColorModeType get_color_mode ( )

The currently selected color mode. See ColorModeType.

bool color_modes_visible = true

void set_modes_visible ( bool value )
bool are_modes_visible ( )

If true, the color mode buttons are visible.

bool deferred_mode = false

void set_deferred_mode ( bool value )
bool is_deferred_mode ( )

If true, the color will apply only after the user releases the mouse button, otherwise it will apply immediately even in mouse motion event (which can cause performance issues).

bool edit_alpha = true

void set_edit_alpha ( bool value )
bool is_editing_alpha ( )

If true, shows an alpha channel slider (opacity).

bool hex_visible = true

void set_hex_visible ( bool value )
bool is_hex_visible ( )

If true, the hex color code input field is visible.

PickerShapeType picker_shape = 0

void set_picker_shape ( PickerShapeType value )
PickerShapeType get_picker_shape ( )

The shape of the color space view. See PickerShapeType.

bool presets_visible = true

void set_presets_visible ( bool value )
bool are_presets_visible ( )
