RichTextLabel

Inherits: Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object

A control for displaying text that can contain different font styles, images, and basic formatting.

Description

A control for displaying text that can contain custom fonts, images, and basic formatting. RichTextLabel manages these as an internal tag stack. It also adapts itself to given width/heights.

Note: Assignments to text clear the tag stack and reconstruct it from the property's contents. Any edits made to text will erase previous edits made from other manual sources such as append_text and the push_* / pop methods.

Note: RichTextLabel doesn't support entangled BBCode tags. For example, instead of using [b]bold[i]bold italic[/b]italic[/i], use [b]bold[i]bold italic[/i][/b][i]italic[/i].

Note: push_*/pop_* functions won't affect BBCode.

Note: Unlike Label, RichTextLabel doesn't have a property to horizontally align text to the center. Instead, enable bbcode_enabled and surround the text in a [center] tag as follows: [center]Example[/center]. There is currently no built-in way to vertically align text either, but this can be emulated by relying on anchors/containers and the fit_content property.

Signals

finished() 🔗

Triggered when the document is fully loaded.

meta_clicked(meta: Variant) 🔗

Triggered when the user clicks on content between meta (URL) tags. If the meta is defined in BBCode, e.g. [url={"key": "value"}]Text[/url], then the parameter for this signal will always be a String type. If a particular type or an object is desired, the push_meta method must be used to manually insert the data into the tag stack. Alternatively, you can convert the String input to the desired type based on its contents (such as calling JSON.parse on it).

For example, the following method can be connected to meta_clicked to open clicked URLs using the user's default web browser:

gdscript

# This assumes RichTextLabel's `meta_clicked` signal was connected to
# the function below using the signal connection dialog.
func _richtextlabel_on_meta_clicked(meta):
    # `meta` is of Variant type, so convert it to a String to avoid script errors at run-time.
    OS.shell_open(str(meta))

meta_hover_ended(meta: Variant) 🔗

Triggers when the mouse exits a meta tag.

meta_hover_started(meta: Variant) 🔗

Triggers when the mouse enters a meta tag.

void set_text(value: String)
String get_text()

The label's text in BBCode format. Is not representative of manual modifications to the internal tag stack. Erases changes made by other methods when edited.

Note: If bbcode_enabled is true, it is unadvised to use the += operator with text (e.g. text += "some string") as it replaces the whole text and can cause slowdowns. It will also erase all BBCode that was added to stack using push_* methods. Use append_text for adding text instead, unless you absolutely need to close a tag that was opened in an earlier method call.

Note: Setting this property updates visible_characters accordingly.

Method Descriptions

void add_image(image: Texture2D, width: int = 0, height: int = 0, color: Color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1), inline_align: InlineAlignment = 5, region: Rect2 = Rect2(0, 0, 0, 0), key: Variant = null, pad: bool = false, tooltip: String = "", size_in_percent: bool = false) 🔗

Adds an image's opening and closing tags to the tag stack, optionally providing a width and height to resize the image, a color to tint the image and a region to only use parts of the image.

If width or height is set to 0, the image size will be adjusted in order to keep the original aspect ratio.

If width and height are not set, but region is, the region's rect will be used.

key is an optional identifier, that can be used to modify the image via update_image.

If pad is set, and the image is smaller than the size specified by width and height, the image padding is added to match the size instead of upscaling.

If size_in_percent is set, width and height values are percentages of the control width instead of pixels.

void add_text(text: String) 🔗

Adds raw non-BBCode-parsed text to the tag stack.

void append_text(bbcode: String) 🔗

Parses bbcode and adds tags to the tag stack as needed.

Note: Using this method, you can't close a tag that was opened in a previous append_text call. This is done to improve performance, especially when updating large RichTextLabels since rebuilding the whole BBCode every time would be slower. If you absolutely need to close a tag in a future method call, append the text instead of using append_text.

void clear() 🔗

Clears the tag stack, causing the label to display nothing.

Note: This method does not affect text, and its contents will show again if the label is redrawn. However, setting text to an empty String also clears the stack.

void deselect() 🔗

Clears the current selection.

int get_character_line(character: int) 🔗

Returns the line number of the character position provided. Line and character numbers are both zero-indexed.

Note: If threaded is enabled, this method returns a value for the loaded part of the document. Use is_ready or finished to determine whether document is fully loaded.

Note: If threaded is enabled, this method returns a value for the loaded part of the document. Use is_ready or finished to determine whether document is fully loaded.

int get_line_count() const 🔗

Returns the total number of lines in the text. Wrapped text is counted as multiple lines.

Note: If threaded is enabled, this method returns a value for the loaded part of the document. Use is_ready or finished to determine whether document is fully loaded.

float get_line_offset(line: int) 🔗

Returns the vertical offset of the line found at the provided index.

Note: If threaded is enabled, this method returns a value for the loaded part of the document. Use is_ready or finished to determine whether document is fully loaded.

Returns the PopupMenu of this RichTextLabel. By default, this menu is displayed when right-clicking on the RichTextLabel.

You can add custom menu items or remove standard ones. Make sure your IDs don't conflict with the standard ones (see MenuItems). For example:

gdscript

func _ready():
    var menu = get_menu()
    # Remove "Select All" item.
    menu.remove_item(MENU_SELECT_ALL)
    # Add custom items.
    menu.add_separator()
    menu.add_item("Duplicate Text", MENU_MAX + 1)
    # Connect callback.
    menu.id_pressed.connect(_on_item_pressed)

func _on_item_pressed(id):
    if id == MENU_MAX + 1:
        add_text("\n" + get_parsed_text())

StyleBox focus 🔗

The background used when the RichTextLabel is focused. The focus StyleBox is displayed over the base StyleBox, so a partially transparent StyleBox should be used to ensure the base StyleBox remains visible. A StyleBox that represents an outline or an underline works well for this purpose. To disable the focus visual effect, assign a StyleBoxEmpty resource. Note that disabling the focus visual effect will harm keyboard/controller navigation usability, so this is not recommended for accessibility reasons.

StyleBox normal 🔗

The normal background for the RichTextLabel.
