Sprite2D

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.

Signals

frame_changed() 🔗

Emitted when the frame changes.

texture_changed() 🔗

Emitted when the texture changes.

Property Descriptions

bool centered = true 🔗

  • void set_centered(value: bool)

  • bool is_centered()

If true, texture is centered.

Note: For games with a pixel art aesthetic, textures may appear deformed when centered. This is caused by their position being between pixels. To prevent this, set this property to false, or consider enabling ProjectSettings.rendering/2d/snap/snap_2d_vertices_to_pixel and ProjectSettings.rendering/2d/snap/snap_2d_transforms_to_pixel.

bool flip_h = false 🔗

  • void set_flip_h(value: bool)

  • bool is_flipped_h()

If true, texture is flipped horizontally.

bool flip_v = false 🔗

  • void set_flip_v(value: bool)

  • bool is_flipped_v()

If true, texture is flipped vertically.

int frame = 0 🔗

  • void set_frame(value: int)

  • int get_frame()

Current frame to display from sprite sheet. hframes or vframes must be greater than 1. This property is automatically adjusted when hframes or vframes are changed to keep pointing to the same visual frame (same column and row). If that's impossible, this value is reset to 0.

Vector2i frame_coords = Vector2i(0, 0) 🔗

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(value: int)

  • int get_hframes()

The number of columns in the sprite sheet. When this property is changed, frame is adjusted so that the same visual frame is maintained (same row and column). If that's impossible, frame is reset to 0.

Vector2 offset = Vector2(0, 0) 🔗

The texture's drawing offset.

bool region_enabled = false 🔗

  • void set_region_enabled(value: bool)

  • bool is_region_enabled()

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

bool region_filter_clip_enabled = false 🔗

  • void set_region_filter_clip_enabled(value: bool)

  • bool is_region_filter_clip_enabled()

If true, the outermost pixels get blurred out. region_enabled must be true.

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

  • void set_region_rect(value: Rect2)

  • Rect2 get_region_rect()

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

Texture2D texture 🔗

Texture2D object to draw.

int vframes = 1 🔗

  • void set_vframes(value: int)

  • int get_vframes()

The number of rows in the sprite sheet. When this property is changed, frame is adjusted so that the same visual frame is maintained (same row and column). If that's impossible, frame is reset to 0.

Method Descriptions

Rect2 get_rect() const 🔗

Returns a Rect2 representing the Sprite2D's boundary in local coordinates. Can be used to detect if the Sprite2D was clicked.

Example:

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

bool is_pixel_opaque(pos: Vector2) const 🔗

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

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