Tree

Inherits Control

A control used to show a set of internal TreeItems in a hierarchical structure.

Description

A control used to show a set of internal TreeItems in a hierarchical structure. The tree items can be selected, expanded and collapsed. The tree can have multiple columns with custom controls like LineEdits, buttons and popups. It can be useful for structured displays and interactions. Trees are built via code, using TreeItem objects to create the structure. They have a single root, but multiple roots can be simulated with hide_root:

		func _ready():
			var tree = Tree.new()
			var root = tree.create_item()
			tree.hide_root = true
			var child1 = tree.create_item(root)
			var child2 = tree.create_item(root)
			var subchild1 = tree.create_item(child1)
			subchild1.set_text(0, "Subchild1")
		
		public override void _Ready()
		{
			var tree = new Tree();
			TreeItem root = tree.CreateItem();
			tree.HideRoot = true;
			TreeItem child1 = tree.CreateItem(root);
			TreeItem child2 = tree.CreateItem(root);
			TreeItem subchild1 = tree.CreateItem(child1);
			subchild1.SetText(0, "Subchild1");
		}

To iterate over all the TreeItem objects in a Tree object, use TreeItem.get_next() and TreeItem.get_first_child() after getting the root through get_root(). You can use Object.free() on a TreeItem to remove it from the Tree. Incremental search: Like ItemList and PopupMenu, Tree supports searching within the list while the control is focused. Press a key that matches the first letter of an item's name to select the first item starting with the given letter. After that point, there are two ways to perform incremental search: 1) Press the same key again before the timeout duration to select the next item starting with the same letter. 2) Press letter keys that match the rest of the word before the timeout duration to match to select the item in question directly. Both of these actions will be reset to the beginning of the list if the timeout duration has passed since the last keystroke was registered. You can adjust the timeout duration by changing ProjectSettings.gui/timers/incremental_search_max_interval_msec.

Properties

bool allow_reselect = false

If true, the currently selected cell may be selected again.

bool allow_rmb_select = false

If true, a right mouse button click can select items.

If true, allows navigating the Tree with letter keys through incremental search.

bool clip_contents = true

bool column_titles_visible = false

If true, column titles are visible.

int columns = 1

The number of columns. Prints an error and does not allow setting the columns during mouse selection.

int drop_mode_flags = 0

The drop mode as an OR combination of flags. See DropModeFlags constants. Once dropping is done, reverts to DROP_MODE_DISABLED. Setting this during Control._can_drop_data() is recommended. This controls the drop sections, i.e. the decision and drawing of possible drop locations based on the mouse position.

bool enable_recursive_folding = true

If true, recursive folding is enabled for this Tree. Holding down Shift while clicking the fold arrow or using ui_right/ui_left shortcuts collapses or uncollapses the TreeItem and all its descendants.

int focus_mode = 2

bool hide_folding = false

If true, the folding arrow is hidden.

bool hide_root = false

If true, the tree's root is hidden.

bool scroll_horizontal_enabled = true

If true, enables horizontal scrolling.

bool scroll_vertical_enabled = true

If true, enables vertical scrolling.

int select_mode = 0

Allows single or multiple selection. See the SelectMode constants.

Methods

void clear()

Clears the tree. This removes all items. Prints an error and does not allow clearing the tree if called during mouse selection.

TreeItem create_item(TreeItem parent = null, int index = -1)

Creates an item in the tree and adds it as a child of parent, which can be either a valid TreeItem or null. If parent is null, the root item will be the parent, or the new item will be the root itself if the tree is empty. The new item will be the index-th child of parent, or it will be the last child if there are not enough siblings. Prints an error and returns null if called during mouse selection, or if the parent does not belong to this tree.

void deselect_all()

Deselects all tree items (rows and columns). In SELECT_MULTI mode also removes selection cursor.

bool edit_selected(bool force_edit = false)

Edits the selected tree item as if it was clicked. Either the item must be set editable with TreeItem.set_editable() or force_edit must be true. Returns true if the item could be edited. Fails if no item is selected.

void ensure_cursor_is_visible()

Makes the currently focused cell visible. This will scroll the tree if necessary. In SELECT_ROW mode, this will not do horizontal scrolling, as all the cells in the selected row is focused logically. Note: Despite the name of this method, the focus cursor itself is only visible in SELECT_MULTI mode.

int get_button_id_at_position(Vector2 position) const

Returns the button ID at position, or -1 if no button is there.

int get_column_at_position(Vector2 position) const

Returns the column index at position, or -1 if no item is there.

int get_column_expand_ratio(int column) const

Returns the expand ratio assigned to the column.

String get_column_title(int column) const

Returns the column's title.

int get_column_title_alignment(int column) const

Returns the column title alignment.

int get_column_title_direction(int column) const

Returns column title base writing direction.

String get_column_title_language(int column) const

Returns column title language code.

int get_column_width(int column) const

Returns the column's width in pixels.

Rect2 get_custom_popup_rect() const

Returns the rectangle for custom popups. Helper to create custom cell controls that display a popup. See TreeItem.set_cell_mode().

int get_drop_section_at_position(Vector2 position) const

Returns the drop section at position, or -100 if no item is there. Values -1, 0, or 1 will be returned for the "above item", "on item", and "below item" drop sections, respectively. See DropModeFlags for a description of each drop section. To get the item which the returned drop section is relative to, use get_item_at_position().

TreeItem get_edited() const

Returns the currently edited item. Can be used with item_edited to get the item that was modified.

				func _ready():
					$Tree.item_edited.connect(on_Tree_item_edited)

				func on_Tree_item_edited():
					print($Tree.get_edited()) # This item just got edited (e.g. checked).
				
				public override void _Ready()
				{
					GetNode<Tree>("Tree").ItemEdited += OnTreeItemEdited;
				}

				public void OnTreeItemEdited()
				{
					GD.Print(GetNode<Tree>("Tree").GetEdited()); // This item just got edited (e.g. checked).
				}

int get_edited_column() const

Returns the column for the currently edited item.

Rect2 get_item_area_rect(TreeItem item, int column = -1, int button_index = -1) const

Returns the rectangle area for the specified TreeItem. If column is specified, only get the position and size of that column, otherwise get the rectangle containing all columns. If a button index is specified, the rectangle of that button will be returned.

TreeItem get_item_at_position(Vector2 position) const

Returns the tree item at the specified position (relative to the tree origin position).

TreeItem get_next_selected(TreeItem from)

Returns the next selected TreeItem after the given one, or null if the end is reached. If from is null, this returns the first selected item.

int get_pressed_button() const

Returns the last pressed button's index.

TreeItem get_root() const

Returns the tree's root item, or null if the tree is empty.

Vector2 get_scroll() const

Returns the current scrolling position.

TreeItem get_selected() const

Returns the currently focused item, or null if no item is focused. In SELECT_ROW and SELECT_SINGLE modes, the focused item is same as the selected item. In SELECT_MULTI mode, the focused item is the item under the focus cursor, not necessarily selected. To get the currently selected item(s), use get_next_selected().

int get_selected_column() const

Returns the currently focused column, or -1 if no column is focused. In SELECT_SINGLE mode, the focused column is the selected column. In SELECT_ROW mode, the focused column is always 0 if any item is selected. In SELECT_MULTI mode, the focused column is the column under the focus cursor, and there are not necessarily any column selected. To tell whether a column of an item is selected, use TreeItem.is_selected().

void set_column_clip_content(int column, bool enable)

Allows to enable clipping for column's content, making the content size ignored.

Sets the title of a column.

void set_column_title_direction(int column, int direction)

Sets column title base writing direction.

void set_column_title_language(int column, String language)

Sets language code of column title used for line-breaking and text shaping algorithms, if left empty current locale is used instead.

Signals

cell_selected()

Emitted when an item is double-clicked, or selected with a ui_accept input event (e.g. using Enter or Space on the keyboard).

item_collapsed(TreeItem item)

Emitted when an item is expanded or collapsed by clicking on the folding arrow or through code. Note: Despite its name, this signal is also emitted when an item is expanded.

item_edited()

Emitted when an item is edited.

item_icon_double_clicked()

Emitted when an item's icon is double-clicked. For a signal that emits when any part of the item is double-clicked, see item_activated.

item_mouse_selected(Vector2 mouse_position, int mouse_button_index)

Emitted when an item is selected with a mouse button.

item_selected()

Emitted when an item is selected.

nothing_selected()

Constants

SELECT_SINGLE = 0

Enum: SelectMode

Allows selection of a single cell at a time. From the perspective of items, only a single item is allowed to be selected. And there is only one column selected in the selected item. The focus cursor is always hidden in this mode, but it is positioned at the current selection, making the currently selected item the currently focused item.

SELECT_ROW = 1

Enum: SelectMode

Allows selection of a single row at a time. From the perspective of items, only a single items is allowed to be selected. And all the columns are selected in the selected item. The focus cursor is always hidden in this mode, but it is positioned at the first column of the current selection, making the currently selected item the currently focused item.

SELECT_MULTI = 2

Enum: SelectMode

Allows selection of multiple cells at the same time. From the perspective of items, multiple items are allowed to be selected. And there can be multiple columns selected in each selected item. The focus cursor is visible in this mode, the item or column under the cursor is not necessarily selected.

DROP_MODE_DISABLED = 0

Enum: DropModeFlags

Disables all drop sections, but still allows to detect the "on item" drop section by get_drop_section_at_position(). Note: This is the default flag, it has no effect when combined with other flags.

DROP_MODE_ON_ITEM = 1

Enum: DropModeFlags

Enables the "on item" drop section. This drop section covers the entire item. When combined with DROP_MODE_INBETWEEN, this drop section halves the height and stays centered vertically.
