Tree ​
Inherits: Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object
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")
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.

Emitted when an item with TreeItem.CELL_MODE_CUSTOM is clicked with a mouse button.
custom_popup_edited(arrow_clicked: bool) 🔗
Emitted when a cell with the TreeItem.CELL_MODE_CUSTOM is clicked to be edited.
empty_clicked(click_position: Vector2, mouse_button_index: int) 🔗
Emitted when a mouse button is clicked in the empty space of the tree.

input event (e.g. using Enter
or Space
on the keyboard).
item_collapsed(item: TreeItem) 🔗
Emitted when an item is collapsed by a click on the folding arrow.
item_edited() 🔗
Emitted when an item is edited.
item_icon_double_clicked() 🔗

item_selected() 🔗
Emitted when an item is selected.
multi_selected(item: TreeItem, column: int, selected: bool) 🔗
Emitted instead of item_selected if select_mode is set to SELECT_MULTI.
nothing_selected() 🔗
Emitted when a left mouse button click does not select any item.
Enumerations
enum SelectMode: 🔗
SelectMode SELECT_SINGLE = 0
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.
SelectMode SELECT_ROW = 1
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.
SelectMode SELECT_MULTI = 2
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.
enum DropModeFlags: 🔗
DropModeFlags DROP_MODE_DISABLED = 0
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.
DropModeFlags DROP_MODE_ON_ITEM = 1
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.
DropModeFlags DROP_MODE_INBETWEEN = 2
Enables "above item" and "below item" drop sections. The "above item" drop section covers the top half of the item, and the "below item" drop section covers the bottom half.
When combined with DROP_MODE_ON_ITEM, these drop sections halves the height and stays on top / bottom accordingly.
Property Descriptions
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 column_titles_visible = false 🔗
If true
, column titles are visible.
The number of columns.
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.

Method Descriptions
void clear() 🔗
Clears the tree. This removes all items.
TreeItem create_item(parent: TreeItem = null, index: int = -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.

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.

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)

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.
