Attention: Here be dragons (unstable version)

This is the latest (unstable) version of this documentation, which may document features not available in or compatible with released stable versions of Redot.

EditorSettings

Inherits: Resource < RefCounted < Object

Object that holds the project-independent editor settings.

Description

Object that holds the project-independent editor settings. These settings are generally visible in the Editor > Editor Settings menu.

Property names use slash delimiters to distinguish sections. Setting values can be of any Variant type. It's recommended to use snake_case for editor settings to be consistent with the Redot editor itself.

Accessing the settings can be done using the following methods, such as:

var settings = EditorInterface.get_editor_settings()
# `settings.set("some/property", 10)` also works as this class overrides `_set()` internally.
settings.set_setting("some/property", 10)
# `settings.get("some/property")` also works as this class overrides `_get()` internally.
settings.get_setting("some/property")
var list_of_settings = settings.get_property_list()

Note: This class shouldn't be instantiated directly. Instead, access the singleton using EditorInterface.get_editor_settings.

Signals

settings_changed() 🔗

Emitted after any editor setting has changed.


Constants

NOTIFICATION_EDITOR_SETTINGS_CHANGED = 10000 🔗

Emitted after any editor setting has changed. It's used by various editor plugins to update their visuals on theme changes or logic on configuration changes.


Property Descriptions

bool asset_library/use_threads 🔗

If true, the Asset Library uses multiple threads for its HTTP requests. This prevents the Asset Library from blocking the main thread for every loaded asset.


bool debugger/auto_switch_to_remote_scene_tree 🔗

If true, automatically switches to the Remote scene tree when running the project from the editor. If false, stays on the Local scene tree when running the project from the editor.

Warning: Enabling this setting can cause stuttering when running a project with a large amount of nodes (typically a few thousands of nodes or more), even if the editor window isn't focused. This is due to the remote scene tree being updated every second regardless of whether the editor is focused.


bool debugger/profile_native_calls 🔗

If true, enables collection of profiling data from non-GDScript Redot functions, such as engine class methods. Enabling this slows execution while profiling further.


int debugger/profiler_frame_history_size 🔗

The size of the profiler's frame history. The default value (3600) allows seeing up to 60 seconds of profiling if the project renders at a constant 60 FPS. Higher values allow viewing longer periods of profiling in the graphs, especially when the project is running at high framerates.


int debugger/profiler_frame_max_functions 🔗

The maximum number of script functions that can be displayed per frame in the profiler. If there are more script functions called in a given profiler frame, these functions will be discarded from the profiling results entirely.

Note: This setting is only read when the profiler is first started, so changing it during profiling will have no effect.


int debugger/profiler_target_fps 🔗

The target frame rate shown in the visual profiler graph, in frames per second.


float debugger/remote_inspect_refresh_interval 🔗

The refresh interval for the remote inspector's properties (in seconds). Lower values are more reactive, but may cause stuttering while the project is running from the editor and the Remote scene tree is selected in the Scene tree dock.


float debugger/remote_scene_tree_refresh_interval 🔗

The refresh interval for the remote scene tree (in seconds). Lower values are more reactive, but may cause stuttering while the project is running from the editor and the Remote scene tree is selected in the Scene tree dock.


bool docks/filesystem/always_show_folders 🔗

If true, displays folders in the FileSystem dock's bottom pane when split mode is enabled. If false, only files will be displayed in the bottom pane. Split mode can be toggled by pressing the icon next to the res:// folder path.

Note: This setting has no effect when split mode is disabled (which is the default).


String docks/filesystem/other_file_extensions 🔗

A comma separated list of unsupported file extensions to show in the FileSystem dock, e.g. "ico,icns".


String docks/filesystem/textfile_extensions 🔗

A comma separated list of file extensions to consider as editable text files in the FileSystem dock (by double-clicking on the files), e.g. "txt,md,cfg,ini,log,json,yml,yaml,toml,xml".


int docks/filesystem/thumbnail_size 🔗

The thumbnail size to use in the FileSystem dock (in pixels). See also filesystem/file_dialog/thumbnail_size.


float docks/property_editor/auto_refresh_interval 🔗

The refresh interval to use for the Inspector dock's properties. The effect of this setting is mainly noticeable when adjusting gizmos in the 2D/3D editor and looking at the inspector at the same time. Lower values make the inspector refresh more often, but take up more CPU time.


float docks/property_editor/subresource_hue_tint 🔗

The tint intensity to use for the subresources background in the Inspector dock. The tint is used to distinguish between different subresources in the inspector. Higher values result in a more noticeable background color difference.

  • macOS: Terminal.app

  • Linux: The first terminal found on the system in this order: gnome-terminal, konsole, xfce4-terminal, lxterminal, kitty, alacritty, urxvt, xterm.

To use Command Prompt (cmd) instead of PowerShell on Windows, enter cmd in this field and the correct flags will automatically be used.

On macOS, make sure to point to the actual program binary located within the Programs/MacOS folder of the .app bundle, rather than the .app bundle directory.

If specifying a custom terminal emulator, you may need to override filesystem/external_programs/terminal_emulator_flags so it opens in the correct folder.


String filesystem/external_programs/terminal_emulator_flags 🔗

The command-line arguments to pass to the terminal emulator that is run when using Open in Terminal context menu action in the FileSystem dock. See also filesystem/external_programs/terminal_emulator.

If left empty, the default flags are {directory}, which is replaced by the absolute path to the directory that is being opened in the terminal.

Note: If the terminal emulator is set to PowerShell, cmd, or Konsole, Redot will automatically prepend arguments to this list, as these terminals require nonstandard arguments to open in the correct folder.

  • Thumbnails takes more space, but displays dynamic resource thumbnails, making resources easier to preview without having to open them.

  • List is more compact but doesn't display dynamic resource thumbnails. Instead, it displays static icons based on the file extension.


bool filesystem/file_dialog/show_hidden_files 🔗

If true, display hidden files in the editor's file dialogs. Files that have names starting with . are considered hidden (e.g. .hidden_file).


int filesystem/file_dialog/thumbnail_size 🔗

The thumbnail size to use in the editor's file dialogs (in pixels). See also docks/filesystem/thumbnail_size.


String filesystem/file_server/password 🔗

Password used for file server when exporting project with remote file system.


int filesystem/file_server/port 🔗

Port used for file server when exporting project with remote file system.


String filesystem/import/blender/blender_path 🔗

The path to the directory containing the Blender executable used for converting the Blender 3D scene files .blend to glTF 2.0 format during import. Blender 3.0 or later is required.

To enable this feature for your specific project, use ProjectSettings.filesystem/import/blender/enabled.


int filesystem/import/blender/rpc_port 🔗

The port number used for Remote Procedure Call (RPC) communication with Redot's created process of the blender executable.

Setting this to 0 effectively disables communication with Redot and the blender process, making performance slower.


float filesystem/import/blender/rpc_server_uptime 🔗

The maximum idle uptime (in seconds) of the Blender process.

This prevents Redot from having to create a new process for each import within the given seconds.


String filesystem/import/fbx/fbx2gltf_path 🔗

The path to the FBX2glTF executable used for converting Autodesk FBX 3D scene files .fbx to glTF 2.0 format during import.

To enable this feature for your specific project, use ProjectSettings.filesystem/import/fbx2gltf/enabled.


bool filesystem/on_save/compress_binary_resources 🔗

If true, uses lossless compression for binary resources.


bool filesystem/on_save/safe_save_on_backup_then_rename 🔗

If true, when saving a file, the editor will rename the old file to a different name, save a new file, then only remove the old file once the new file has been saved. This makes loss of data less likely to happen if the editor or operating system exits unexpectedly while saving (e.g. due to a crash or power outage).

Note: On Windows, this feature can interact negatively with certain antivirus programs. In this case, you may have to set this to false to prevent file locking issues.


int filesystem/quick_open_dialog/default_display_mode 🔗

If set to Adaptive, the dialog opens in list view or grid view depending on the requested type. If set to Last Used, the display mode will always open the way you last used it.


bool filesystem/quick_open_dialog/enable_fuzzy_matching 🔗

If true, fuzzy matching of search tokens is allowed.


bool filesystem/quick_open_dialog/include_addons 🔗

If true, results will include files located in the addons folder.


int filesystem/quick_open_dialog/max_fuzzy_misses 🔗

The number of allowed missed query characters in a match, if fuzzy matching is enabled. For example, with the default value of 2, foobar would match foobur and foob but not foo.


int filesystem/quick_open_dialog/max_results 🔗

Maximum number of matches to show in dialog.


bool filesystem/quick_open_dialog/show_search_highlight 🔗

If true, results will be highlighted with their search matches.


String filesystem/tools/oidn/oidn_denoise_path 🔗

The path to the directory containing the Open Image Denoise (OIDN) executable, used optionally for denoising lightmaps. It can be downloaded from openimagedenoise.org.

To enable this feature for your specific project, use ProjectSettings.rendering/lightmapping/denoising/denoiser.


bool input/buffering/agile_event_flushing 🔗

If true, input events will be flushed just before every idle and physics frame.

If false, these events will be flushed only once per process frame, between iterations of the engine.

Enabling this setting can greatly improve input responsiveness, especially in devices that struggle to run at the project's intended frame rate.


bool input/buffering/use_accumulated_input 🔗

If true, similar input events sent by the operating system are accumulated. When input accumulation is enabled, all input events generated during a frame will be merged and emitted when the frame is done rendering. Therefore, this limits the number of input method calls per second to the rendering FPS.

Input accumulation can be disabled to get slightly more precise/reactive input at the cost of increased CPU usage.

Note: Input accumulation is enabled by default.


int interface/editor/accept_dialog_cancel_ok_buttons 🔗

How to position the Cancel and OK buttons in the editor's AcceptDialogs. Different platforms have different standard behaviors for this, which can be overridden using this setting. This is useful if you use Redot both on Windows and macOS/Linux and your Redot muscle memory is stronger than your OS specific one.

  • Auto follows the platform convention: Cancel first on macOS and Linux, OK first on Windows.

  • Cancel First forces the ordering Cancel/OK.

  • OK First forces the ordering OK/Cancel.


bool interface/editor/automatically_open_screenshots 🔗

If true, automatically opens screenshots with the default program associated to .png files after a screenshot is taken using the Editor > Take Screenshot action.


String interface/editor/code_font 🔗

The font to use for the script editor. Must be a resource of a Font type such as a .ttf or .otf font file.


int interface/editor/code_font_contextual_ligatures 🔗

The font ligatures to enable for the currently configured code font. Not all fonts include support for ligatures.

Note: The default editor code font (JetBrains Mono) has contextual ligatures in its font file.


String interface/editor/code_font_custom_opentype_features 🔗

List of custom OpenType features to use, if supported by the currently configured code font. Not all fonts include support for custom OpenType features. The string should follow the OpenType specification.

Note: The default editor code font (JetBrains Mono) has custom OpenType features in its font file, but there is no documented list yet.


String interface/editor/code_font_custom_variations 🔗

List of alternative characters to use, if supported by the currently configured code font. Not all fonts include support for custom variations. The string should follow the OpenType specification.

Note: The default editor code font (JetBrains Mono) has alternate characters in its font file, but there is no documented list yet.


int interface/editor/code_font_size 🔗

The size of the font in the script editor. This setting does not impact the font size of the Output panel (see run/output/font_size).


float interface/editor/custom_display_scale 🔗

The custom editor scale factor to use. This can be used for displays with very high DPI where a scale factor of 200% is not sufficient.

Note: Only effective if interface/editor/display_scale is set to Custom.


int interface/editor/display_scale 🔗

The display scale factor to use for the editor interface. Higher values are more suited to hiDPI/Retina displays.

If set to Auto, the editor scale is automatically determined based on the screen resolution and reported display DPI. This heuristic is not always ideal, which means you can get better results by setting the editor scale manually.

If set to Custom, the scaling value in interface/editor/custom_display_scale will be used.


int interface/editor/dock_tab_style 🔗

Tab style of editor docks.


String interface/editor/editor_language 🔗

The language to use for the editor interface.

Translations are provided by the community. If you spot a mistake, contribute to editor translations on Weblate!


int interface/editor/editor_screen 🔗

The preferred monitor to display the editor. If Auto, the editor will remember the last screen it was displayed on across restarts.


bool interface/editor/expand_to_title 🔗

Expanding main editor window content to the title, if supported by DisplayServer. See DisplayServer.WINDOW_FLAG_EXTEND_TO_TITLE.

Specific to the macOS platform.


bool interface/editor/font_allow_msdf 🔗

If set to true, MSDF font rendering will be used for the visual shader graph editor. You may need to set this to false when using a custom main font, as some fonts will look broken due to the use of self-intersecting outlines in their font data. Downloading the font from the font maker's official website as opposed to a service like Google Fonts can help resolve this issue.


int interface/editor/font_antialiasing 🔗

FreeType's font anti-aliasing mode used to render the editor fonts. Most fonts are not designed to look good with anti-aliasing disabled, so it's recommended to leave this enabled unless you're using a pixel art font.


bool interface/editor/font_disable_embedded_bitmaps 🔗

If set to true, embedded font bitmap loading is disabled (bitmap-only and color fonts ignore this property).


int interface/editor/font_hinting 🔗

The font hinting mode to use for the editor fonts. FreeType supports the following font hinting modes:

  • None: Don't use font hinting when rasterizing the font. This results in a smooth font, but it can look blurry.

  • Light: Use hinting on the X axis only. This is a compromise between font sharpness and smoothness.

  • Normal: Use hinting on both X and Y axes. This results in a sharp font, but it doesn't look very smooth.

If set to Auto, the font hinting mode will be set to match the current operating system in use. This means the Light hinting mode will be used on Windows and Linux, and the None hinting mode will be used on macOS.


int interface/editor/font_subpixel_positioning 🔗

The subpixel positioning mode to use when rendering editor font glyphs. This affects both the main and code fonts. Disabled is the fastest to render and uses the least memory. Auto only uses subpixel positioning for small font sizes (where the benefit is the most noticeable). One Half of a Pixel and One Quarter of a Pixel force the same subpixel positioning mode for all editor fonts, regardless of their size (with One Quarter of a Pixel being the highest-quality option).


bool interface/editor/import_resources_when_unfocused 🔗

If true, (re)imports resources even if the editor window is unfocused or minimized. If false, resources are only (re)imported when the editor window is focused. This can be set to true to speed up iteration by starting the import process earlier when saving files in the project folder. This also allows getting visual feedback on changes without having to click the editor window, which is useful with multi-monitor setups. The downside of setting this to true is that it increases idle CPU usage and may steal CPU time from other applications when importing resources.


bool interface/editor/keep_screen_on 🔗

If true, keeps the screen on (even in case of inactivity), so the screensaver does not take over. Works on desktop and mobile platforms.


bool interface/editor/localize_settings 🔗

If true, setting names in the editor are localized when possible.

Note: This setting affects most EditorInspectors in the editor UI, primarily Project Settings and Editor Settings. To control names displayed in the Inspector dock, use interface/inspector/default_property_name_style instead.


int interface/editor/low_processor_mode_sleep_usec 🔗

The amount of sleeping between frames when the low-processor usage mode is enabled (in microseconds). Higher values will result in lower CPU/GPU usage, which can improve battery life on laptops. However, higher values will result in a less responsive editor. The default value is set to allow for maximum smoothness on monitors up to 144 Hz. See also interface/editor/unfocused_low_processor_mode_sleep_usec.

Note: This setting is ignored if interface/editor/update_continuously is true, as enabling that setting disables low-processor mode.


String interface/editor/main_font 🔗

The font to use for the editor interface. Must be a resource of a Font type such as a .ttf or .otf font file.


String interface/editor/main_font_bold 🔗

The font to use for bold text in the editor interface. Must be a resource of a Font type such as a .ttf or .otf font file.


int interface/editor/main_font_size 🔗

The size of the font in the editor interface.


bool interface/editor/mouse_extra_buttons_navigate_history 🔗

If true, the mouse's additional side buttons will be usable to navigate in the script editor's file history. Set this to false if you're using the side buttons for other purposes (such as a push-to-talk button in a VoIP program).


int interface/editor/project_manager_screen 🔗

The preferred monitor to display the project manager.


bool interface/editor/save_each_scene_on_quit 🔗

If false, the editor will save all scenes when confirming the Save action when quitting the editor or quitting to the project list. If true, the editor will ask to save each scene individually.


bool interface/editor/save_on_focus_loss 🔗

If true, scenes and scripts are saved when the editor loses focus. Depending on the work flow, this behavior can be less intrusive than text_editor/behavior/files/autosave_interval_secs or remembering to save manually.


bool interface/editor/separate_distraction_mode 🔗

If true, the editor's Script tab will have a separate distraction mode setting from the 2D/3D/AssetLib tabs. If false, the distraction-free mode toggle is shared between all tabs.


int interface/editor/show_internal_errors_in_toast_notifications 🔗

If enabled, displays internal engine errors in toast notifications (toggleable by clicking the "bell" icon at the bottom of the editor). No matter the value of this setting, non-internal engine errors will always be visible in toast notifications.

The default Auto value will only enable this if the editor was compiled with the dev_build=yes SCons option (the default is dev_build=no).


int interface/editor/show_update_spinner 🔗

If enabled, displays an icon in the top-right corner of the editor that spins when the editor redraws a frame. This can be used to diagnose situations where the engine is constantly redrawing, which should be avoided as this increases CPU and GPU utilization for no good reason. To further troubleshoot these situations, start the editor with the --debug-canvas-item-redraw command line argument.

Consider enabling this if you are developing editor plugins to ensure they only make the editor redraw when required.

The default Auto value will only enable this if the editor was compiled with the dev_build=yes SCons option (the default is dev_build=no).

Note: If interface/editor/update_continuously is true, the spinner icon displays in red.

Note: If the editor was started with the --debug-canvas-item-redraw command line argument, the update spinner will never display regardless of this setting's value. This is to avoid confusion with what would cause redrawing in real world scenarios.


bool interface/editor/single_window_mode 🔗

If true, embed modal windows such as docks inside the main editor window. When single-window mode is enabled, tooltips will also be embedded inside the main editor window, which means they can't be displayed outside of the editor window. Single-window mode can be faster as it does not need to create a separate window for every popup and tooltip, which can be a slow operation depending on the operating system and rendering method in use.

This is equivalent to ProjectSettings.display/window/subwindows/embed_subwindows in the running project, except the setting's value is inverted.

Note: To query whether the editor can use multiple windows in an editor plugin, use EditorInterface.is_multi_window_enabled instead of querying the value of this editor setting.


int interface/editor/ui_layout_direction 🔗

Editor UI default layout direction.


int interface/editor/unfocused_low_processor_mode_sleep_usec 🔗

When the editor window is unfocused, the amount of sleeping between frames when the low-processor usage mode is enabled (in microseconds). Higher values will result in lower CPU/GPU usage, which can improve battery life on laptops (in addition to improving the running project's performance if the editor has to redraw continuously). However, higher values will result in a less responsive editor. The default value is set to limit the editor to 20 FPS when the editor window is unfocused. See also interface/editor/low_processor_mode_sleep_usec.

Note: This setting is ignored if interface/editor/update_continuously is true, as enabling that setting disables low-processor mode.


bool interface/editor/update_continuously 🔗

If true, redraws the editor every frame even if nothing has changed on screen. When this setting is enabled, the update spinner displays in red (see interface/editor/show_update_spinner).

Warning: This greatly increases CPU and GPU utilization, leading to increased power usage. This should only be enabled for troubleshooting purposes.


bool interface/editor/use_embedded_menu 🔗

If true, editor main menu is using embedded MenuBar instead of system global menu.

Specific to the macOS platform.


bool interface/editor/use_native_file_dialogs 🔗

If true, editor UI uses OS native file/directory selection dialogs.


int interface/editor/vsync_mode 🔗

Sets the V-Sync mode for the editor. Does not affect the project when run from the editor (this is controlled by ProjectSettings.display/window/vsync/vsync_mode).

Depending on the platform and used renderer, the engine will fall back to Enabled if the desired mode is not supported.

Note: V-Sync modes other than Enabled are only supported in the Forward+ and Mobile rendering methods, not Compatibility.


bool interface/editors/derive_script_globals_by_name 🔗

If true, when extending a script, the global class name of the script is inserted in the script creation dialog, if it exists. If false, the script's file path is always inserted.


bool interface/editors/show_scene_tree_root_selection 🔗

If true, the Scene dock will display buttons to quickly add a root node to a newly created scene.


bool interface/inspector/auto_unfold_foreign_scenes 🔗

If true, automatically expands property groups in the Inspector dock when opening a scene that hasn't been opened previously. If false, all groups remain collapsed by default.

The default color picker mode to use when opening ColorPickers in the editor. This mode can be temporarily adjusted on the color picker itself.


int interface/inspector/default_color_picker_shape 🔗

The default color picker shape to use when opening ColorPickers in the editor. This shape can be temporarily adjusted on the color picker itself.


float interface/inspector/default_float_step 🔗

The floating-point precision to use for properties that don't define an explicit precision step. Lower values allow entering more precise values.


int interface/inspector/default_property_name_style 🔗

The default property name style to display in the Inspector dock. This style can be temporarily adjusted in the Inspector dock's menu.

  • Raw: Displays properties in snake_case.

  • Capitalized: Displays properties capitalized.

  • Localized: Displays the localized string for the current editor language if a translation is available for the given property. If no translation is available, falls back to Capitalized.

Note: To display translated setting names in Project Settings and Editor Settings, use interface/editor/localize_settings instead.


bool interface/inspector/delimitate_all_container_and_resources 🔗

If true, add a margin around Array, Dictionary, and Resource Editors that are not already colored.

Note: If interface/inspector/nested_color_mode is set to Containers & Resources this parameter will have no effect since those editors will already be colored.


bool interface/inspector/disable_folding 🔗

If true, forces all property groups to be expanded in the Inspector dock and prevents collapsing them.


float interface/inspector/float_drag_speed 🔗

Base speed for increasing/decreasing float values by dragging them in the inspector.


bool interface/inspector/horizontal_vector2_editing 🔗

If true, Vector2 and Vector2i properties are shown on a single line in the inspector instead of two lines. This is overall more compact, but it can be harder to view and edit large values without expanding the inspector horizontally.


bool interface/inspector/horizontal_vector_types_editing 🔗

If true, Vector3, Vector3i, Vector4, Vector4i, Rect2, Rect2i, Plane, and Quaternion properties are shown on a single line in the inspector instead of multiple lines. This is overall more compact, but it can be harder to view and edit large values without expanding the inspector horizontally.


int interface/inspector/max_array_dictionary_items_per_page 🔗

The number of Array or Dictionary items to display on each "page" in the inspector. Higher values allow viewing more values per page, but take more time to load. This increased load time is noticeable when selecting nodes that have array or dictionary properties in the editor.


int interface/inspector/nested_color_mode 🔗

Control which property editors are colored when they are opened.

  • Containers & Resources: Color all Array, Dictionary, and Resource Editors.

  • Resources: Color all Resource Editors.

  • External Resources: Color Resource Editors that edits an external resource.


bool interface/inspector/open_resources_in_current_inspector 🔗

If true, subresources can be edited in the current inspector view. If the resource type is defined in interface/inspector/resources_to_open_in_new_inspector or if this setting is false, attempting to edit a subresource always opens a new inspector view.


PackedStringArray interface/inspector/resources_to_open_in_new_inspector 🔗

List of resources that should always be opened in a new inspector view, even if interface/inspector/open_resources_in_current_inspector is true.

Note: The returned array is copied and any changes to it will not update the original property value. See PackedStringArray for more details.


bool interface/inspector/show_low_level_opentype_features 🔗

If true, display OpenType features marked as hidden by the font file in the Font editor.


bool interface/multi_window/enable 🔗

If true, multiple window support in editor is enabled. The following panels can become dedicated windows (i.e. made floating): Docks, Script editor, and Shader editor.

Note: When interface/editor/single_window_mode is true, the multi window support is always disabled.

Note: To query whether the editor can use multiple windows in an editor plugin, use EditorInterface.is_multi_window_enabled instead of querying the value of this editor setting.


bool interface/multi_window/maximize_window 🔗

If true, when panels are made floating they will be maximized.

If false, when panels are made floating their position and size will match the ones when they are attached (excluding window border) to the editor window.


bool interface/multi_window/restore_windows_on_load 🔗

If true, the floating panel position, size, and screen will be saved on editor exit. On next launch the panels that were floating will be made floating in the saved positions, sizes and screens, if possible.


int interface/scene_tabs/display_close_button 🔗

Controls when the Close (X) button is displayed on scene tabs at the top of the editor.


int interface/scene_tabs/maximum_width 🔗

The maximum width of each scene tab at the top editor (in pixels).


bool interface/scene_tabs/restore_scenes_on_load 🔗

If true, when a project is loaded, restores scenes that were opened on the last editor session.

Note: With many opened scenes, the editor may take longer to become usable. If starting the editor quickly is necessary, consider setting this to false.


bool interface/scene_tabs/show_script_button 🔗

If true, show a button next to each scene tab that opens the scene's "dominant" script when clicked. The "dominant" script is the one that is at the highest level in the scene's hierarchy.


bool interface/scene_tabs/show_thumbnail_on_hover 🔗

If true, display an automatically-generated thumbnail when hovering scene tabs with the mouse. Scene thumbnails are generated when saving the scene.


Color interface/theme/accent_color 🔗

The color to use for "highlighted" user interface elements in the editor (pressed and hovered items).


int interface/theme/additional_spacing 🔗

The extra spacing to add to various GUI elements in the editor (in pixels). Increasing this value is useful to improve usability on touch screens, at the cost of reducing the amount of usable screen real estate.

See also interface/theme/spacing_preset.

int interface/theme/border_size 🔗

The border size to use for interface elements (in pixels).


float interface/theme/contrast 🔗

The contrast factor to use when deriving the editor theme's base color (see interface/theme/base_color). When using a positive values, the derived colors will be darker than the base color. This contrast factor can be set to a negative value, which will make the derived colors brighter than the base color. Negative contrast rates often look better for light themes.


int interface/theme/corner_radius 🔗

The corner radius to use for interface elements (in pixels). 0 is square.


String interface/theme/custom_theme 🔗

The custom theme resource to use for the editor. Must be a Redot theme resource in .tres or .res format.


bool interface/theme/draw_extra_borders 🔗

If true, draws additional borders around interactive UI elements in the editor. This is automatically enabled when using the Black (OLED) theme preset, as this theme preset uses a fully black background.


bool interface/theme/follow_system_theme 🔗

If true, the editor theme preset will attempt to automatically match the system theme.


int interface/theme/icon_and_font_color 🔗

The icon and font color scheme to use in the editor.

  • Auto determines the color scheme to use automatically based on interface/theme/base_color.

Note: Defaults to 1 on non-touchscreen devices.


int network/connection/engine_version_update_mode 🔗

Specifies how the engine should check for updates.

  • Disable Update Checks will block the engine from checking updates (see also network/connection/network_mode).

  • Check Newest Preview (default for preview versions) will check for the newest available development snapshot.

  • Check Newest Stable (default for stable versions) will check for the newest available stable version.

  • Check Newest Patch will check for the latest available stable version, but only within the same minor version. E.g. if your version is 4.3.stable, you will be notified about 4.3.1.stable, but not 4.4.stable.

All update modes will ignore builds with different major versions (e.g. Redot 4 -> Redot 5).


int network/connection/network_mode 🔗

Determines whether online features are enabled in the editor, such as the Asset Library or update checks. Disabling these online features helps alleviate privacy concerns by preventing the editor from making HTTP requests to the Redot website or third-party platforms hosting assets from the Asset Library.


String network/debug/remote_host 🔗

The address to listen to when starting the remote debugger. This can be set to this device's local IP address to allow external clients to connect to the remote debugger (instead of restricting the remote debugger to connections from localhost).


int network/debug/remote_port 🔗

The port to listen to when starting the remote debugger. Redot will try to use port numbers above the configured number if the configured number is already taken by another application.


String network/http_proxy/host 🔗

The host to use to contact the HTTP and HTTPS proxy in the editor (for the asset library and export template downloads). See also network/http_proxy/port.

Note: Redot currently doesn't automatically use system proxy settings, so you have to enter them manually here if needed.

int project_manager/sorting_order 🔗

The sorting order to use in the project manager. When changing the sorting order in the project manager, this setting is set permanently in the editor settings.


bool run/auto_save/save_before_running 🔗

If true, saves all scenes and scripts automatically before running the project. Setting this to false prevents the editor from saving if there are no changes which can speed up the project startup slightly, but it makes it possible to run a project that has unsaved changes. (Unsaved changes will not be visible in the running project.)


int run/bottom_panel/action_on_play 🔗

The action to execute on the bottom panel when running the project.

Note: This option won't do anything if the bottom panel switching is locked using the pin button in the corner of the bottom panel.


int run/bottom_panel/action_on_stop 🔗
