Sprite¶

Inherits: Node2D < CanvasItem < Node < Object

General-purpose sprite node.

Description¶

A node that displays a 2D texture. The texture displayed can be a region from a larger atlas texture, or a frame from a sprite sheet animation.

Methods¶

Rect2	get_rect ( ) const
bool	is_pixel_opaque ( Vector2 pos ) const

Signals¶

frame_changed ( )

Emitted when the frame changes.

texture_changed ( )

Emitted when the texture changes.

Property Descriptions¶

bool centered = true

void set_centered ( bool value )
bool is_centered ( )

If true, texture is centered.

bool flip_h = false

void set_flip_h ( bool value )
bool is_flipped_h ( )

If true, texture is flipped horizontally.

bool flip_v = false

void set_flip_v ( bool value )
bool is_flipped_v ( )

If true, texture is flipped vertically.

int frame = 0

void set_frame ( int value )
int get_frame ( )

Current frame to display from sprite sheet. hframes or vframes must be greater than 1.

Vector2 frame_coords = Vector2( 0, 0 )

void set_frame_coords ( Vector2 value )
Vector2 get_frame_coords ( )

Coordinates of the frame to display from sprite sheet. This is as an alias for the frame property. hframes or vframes must be greater than 1.

int hframes = 1

void set_hframes ( int value )
int get_hframes ( )

The number of columns in the sprite sheet.

Texture normal_map

void set_normal_map ( Texture value )
Texture get_normal_map ( )

The normal map gives depth to the Sprite.

Note: Redot expects the normal map to use X+, Y-, and Z+ coordinates. See this page for a comparison of normal map coordinates expected by popular engines.

Vector2 offset = Vector2( 0, 0 )

void set_offset ( Vector2 value )
Vector2 get_offset ( )

The texture's drawing offset.

bool region_enabled = false

void set_region ( bool value )
bool is_region ( )

If true, texture is cut from a larger atlas texture. See region_rect.

bool region_filter_clip = false

void set_region_filter_clip ( bool value )
bool is_region_filter_clip_enabled ( )

If true, the outermost pixels get blurred out.

Rect2 region_rect = Rect2( 0, 0, 0, 0 )

void set_region_rect ( Rect2 value )
Rect2 get_region_rect ( )

The region of the atlas texture to display. region_enabled must be true.

Texture texture

void set_texture ( Texture value )
Texture get_texture ( )

Texture object to draw.

int vframes = 1

void set_vframes ( int value )
int get_vframes ( )

The number of rows in the sprite sheet.

Method Descriptions¶

Rect2 get_rect ( ) const

Returns a Rect2 representing the Sprite's boundary in local coordinates. Can be used to detect if the Sprite was clicked. Example:

func _input(event):
    if event is InputEventMouseButton and event.pressed and event.button_index == BUTTON_LEFT:
        if get_rect().has_point(to_local(event.position)):
            print("A click!")

bool is_pixel_opaque ( Vector2 pos ) const

Returns true, if the pixel at the given position is opaque and false in other case.

Note: It also returns false, if the sprite's texture is null or if the given position is invalid.
