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 Godot editor itself.

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

GDScriptC#

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()

EditorSettings settings = EditorInterface.Singleton.GetEditorSettings();
// `settings.set("some/property", value)` also works as this class overrides `_set()` internally.
settings.SetSetting("some/property", Value);
// `settings.get("some/property", value)` also works as this class overrides `_get()` internally.
settings.GetSetting("some/property");
Godot.Collections.Array<Godot.Collections.Dictionary> listOfSettings = settings.GetPropertyList();

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

Properties

Methods

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 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.

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.

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/textfile_extensions

List of file extensions to consider as editable text files in the FileSystem dock (by double-clicking on the files).

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.

bool docks/scene_tree/auto_expand_to_selected

If true, the scene tree dock will automatically unfold nodes when a node that has folded parents is selected.

bool docks/scene_tree/start_create_dialog_fully_expanded

If true, the Create dialog (Create New Node/Create New Resource) will start with all its sections expanded. Otherwise, sections will be collapsed until the user starts searching (which will automatically expand sections as needed).

Color editors/2d/bone_color1

The “start” stop of the color gradient to use for bones in the 2D skeleton editor.

Color editors/2d/bone_color2

The “end” stop of the color gradient to use for bones in the 2D skeleton editor.

Color editors/2d/bone_ik_color

The color to use for inverse kinematics-enabled bones in the 2D skeleton editor.

Color editors/2d/bone_outline_color

The outline color to use for non-selected bones in the 2D skeleton editor. See also editors/2d/bone_selected_color.

float editors/2d/bone_outline_size

The outline size in the 2D skeleton editor (in pixels). See also editors/2d/bone_width.

Note: Changes to this value only apply after modifying a Bone2D node in any way, or closing and reopening the scene.

Color editors/2d/bone_selected_color

The color to use for selected bones in the 2D skeleton editor. See also editors/2d/bone_outline_color.

float editors/2d/bone_width

The bone width in the 2D skeleton editor (in pixels). See also editors/2d/bone_outline_size.

Note: Changes to this value only apply after modifying a Bone2D node in any way, or closing and reopening the scene.

Color editors/2d/grid_color

The grid color to use in the 2D editor.

Color editors/2d/guides_color

The guides color to use in the 2D editor. Guides can be created by dragging the mouse cursor from the rulers.

Color editors/2d/smart_snapping_line_color

The color to use when drawing smart snapping lines in the 2D editor. The smart snapping lines will automatically display when moving 2D nodes if smart snapping is enabled in the Snapping Options menu at the top of the 2D editor viewport.

bool editors/2d/use_integer_zoom_by_default

If true, the 2D editor will snap to integer zoom values while not holding the Alt key and powers of two while holding it. If false, this behavior is swapped.

Color editors/2d/viewport_border_color

The color of the viewport border in the 2D editor. This border represents the viewport’s size at the base resolution defined in the Project Settings. Objects placed outside this border will not be visible unless a Camera2D node is used, or unless the window is resized and the stretch mode is set to disabled.

float editors/3d/default_fov

The default camera field of view to use in the 3D editor (in degrees). The camera field of view can be adjusted on a per-scene basis using the View menu at the top of the 3D editor. If a scene had its camera field of view adjusted using the View menu, this setting is ignored in the scene in question. This setting is also ignored while a Camera3D node is being previewed in the editor.

float editors/3d/default_z_far

The default camera far clip distance to use in the 3D editor (in degrees). Higher values make it possible to view objects placed further away from the camera, at the cost of lower precision in the depth buffer (which can result in visible Z-fighting in the distance). The camera far clip distance can be adjusted on a per-scene basis using the View menu at the top of the 3D editor. If a scene had its camera far clip distance adjusted using the View menu, this setting is ignored in the scene in question. This setting is also ignored while a Camera3D node is being previewed in the editor.

float editors/3d/default_z_near

The default camera near clip distance to use in the 3D editor (in degrees). Lower values make it possible to view objects placed closer to the camera, at the cost of lower precision in the depth buffer (which can result in visible Z-fighting in the distance). The camera near clip distance can be adjusted on a per-scene basis using the View menu at the top of the 3D editor. If a scene had its camera near clip distance adjusted using the View menu, this setting is ignored in the scene in question. This setting is also ignored while a Camera3D node is being previewed in the editor.

int editors/3d/freelook/freelook_activation_modifier

The modifier key to use to enable freelook in the 3D editor (on top of pressing the right mouse button).

Note: Regardless of this setting, the freelook toggle keyboard shortcut (Shift + F by default) is always available.

Note: On certain window managers on Linux, the Alt key will be intercepted by the window manager when clicking a mouse button at the same time. This means Godot will not see the modifier key as being pressed.

float editors/3d/freelook/freelook_base_speed

The base 3D freelook speed in units per second. This can be adjusted by using the mouse wheel while in freelook mode, or by holding down the “fast” or “slow” modifier keys (Shift and Alt by default, respectively).

float editors/3d/freelook/freelook_inertia

The inertia of the 3D freelook camera. Higher values make the camera start and stop slower, which looks smoother but adds latency.

int editors/3d/freelook/freelook_navigation_scheme

The navigation scheme to use when freelook is enabled in the 3D editor. Some of the navigation schemes below may be more convenient when designing specific levels in the 3D editor.

• Default: The “Freelook Forward”, “Freelook Backward”, “Freelook Up” and “Freelook Down” keys will move relative to the camera, taking its pitch angle into account for the movement.

• Partially Axis-Locked: The “Freelook Forward” and “Freelook Backward” keys will move relative to the camera, taking its pitch angle into account for the movement. The “Freelook Up” and “Freelook Down” keys will move in an “absolute” manner, not taking the camera’s pitch angle into account for the movement.

• Fully Axis-Locked: The “Freelook Forward”, “Freelook Backward”, “Freelook Up” and “Freelook Down” keys will move in an “absolute” manner, not taking the camera’s pitch angle into account for the movement.

See also editors/3d/navigation/navigation_scheme.

float editors/3d/freelook/freelook_sensitivity

The mouse sensitivity to use while freelook mode is active in the 3D editor. See also editors/3d/navigation_feel/orbit_sensitivity.

bool editors/3d/freelook/freelook_speed_zoom_link

If true, freelook speed is linked to the zoom value used in the camera orbit mode in the 3D editor.

float editors/3d/grid_division_level_bias

The grid division bias to use in the 3D editor. Negative values will cause small grid divisions to appear earlier, whereas positive values will cause small grid divisions to appear later.

int editors/3d/grid_division_level_max

The largest grid division to use in the 3D editor. Together with editors/3d/primary_grid_steps, this determines how large the grid divisions can be. The grid divisions will not be able to get larger than primary_grid_steps ^ grid_division_level_max units. By default, when editors/3d/primary_grid_steps is 8, this means grid divisions cannot get larger than 64 units each (so primary grid lines are 512 units apart), no matter how far away the camera is from the grid.

int editors/3d/grid_division_level_min

The smallest grid division to use in the 3D editor. Together with editors/3d/primary_grid_steps, this determines how small the grid divisions can be. The grid divisions will not be able to get smaller than primary_grid_steps ^ grid_division_level_min units. By default, this means grid divisions cannot get smaller than 1 unit each, no matter how close the camera is from the grid.

int editors/3d/grid_size

The grid size in units. Higher values prevent the grid from appearing “cut off” at certain angles, but make the grid more demanding to render. Depending on the camera’s position, the grid may not be fully visible since a shader is used to fade it progressively.

bool editors/3d/grid_xy_plane

If true, render the grid on an XY plane. This can be useful for 3D side-scrolling games.

bool editors/3d/grid_xz_plane

If true, render the grid on an XZ plane.

bool editors/3d/grid_yz_plane

If true, render the grid on a YZ plane. This can be useful for 3D side-scrolling games.

bool editors/3d/navigation/emulate_3_button_mouse

If true, enables 3-button mouse emulation mode. This is useful on laptops when using a trackpad.

When 3-button mouse emulation mode is enabled, the pan, zoom and orbit modifiers can always be used in the 3D editor viewport, even when not holding down any mouse button.

Note: No matter the orbit modifier configured in editors/3d/navigation/orbit_modifier, Alt will always remain usable for orbiting in this mode to improve usability with graphics tablets.

bool editors/3d/navigation/emulate_numpad

If true, allows using the top row 0-9 keys to function as their equivalent numpad keys for 3D editor navigation. This should be enabled on keyboards that have no numeric keypad available.

bool editors/3d/navigation/invert_x_axis

If true, invert the horizontal mouse axis when panning or orbiting in the 3D editor. This setting does not apply to freelook mode.

bool editors/3d/navigation/invert_y_axis

If true, invert the vertical mouse axis when panning, orbiting, or using freelook mode in the 3D editor.

int editors/3d/navigation/navigation_scheme

The navigation scheme to use in the 3D editor. Changing this setting will affect the mouse buttons that must be held down to perform certain operations in the 3D editor viewport.

• Godot Middle mouse button to orbit, Shift + Middle mouse button to pan. Mouse wheel to zoom.

• Maya: Alt + Left mouse button to orbit. Middle mouse button to pan, Shift + Middle mouse button to pan 10 times faster. Mouse wheel to zoom.

• Modo: Alt + Left mouse button to orbit. Alt + Shift + Left mouse button to pan. Ctrl + Alt + Left mouse button to zoom.

See also editors/3d/freelook/freelook_navigation_scheme.

Note: On certain window managers on Linux, the Alt key will be intercepted by the window manager when clicking a mouse button at the same time. This means Godot will not see the modifier key as being pressed.

int editors/3d/navigation/orbit_modifier

The modifier key that must be held to orbit in the 3D editor.

Note: If editors/3d/navigation/emulate_3_button_mouse is true, Alt will always remain usable for orbiting to improve usability with graphics tablets.

Note: On certain window managers on Linux, the Alt key will be intercepted by the window manager when clicking a mouse button at the same time. This means Godot will not see the modifier key as being pressed.

int editors/3d/navigation/pan_modifier

The modifier key that must be held to pan in the 3D editor.

Note: On certain window managers on Linux, the Alt key will be intercepted by the window manager when clicking a mouse button at the same time. This means Godot will not see the modifier key as being pressed.

bool editors/3d/navigation/warped_mouse_panning

If true, warps the mouse around the 3D viewport while panning in the 3D editor. This makes it possible to pan over a large area without having to exit panning and adjust the mouse cursor.

int editors/3d/navigation/zoom_modifier

The modifier key that must be held to zoom in the 3D editor.

Note: On certain window managers on Linux, the Alt key will be intercepted by the window manager when clicking a mouse button at the same time. This means Godot will not see the modifier key as being pressed.

int editors/3d/navigation/zoom_style

The mouse cursor movement direction to use when zooming by moving the mouse. This does not affect zooming with the mouse wheel.

float editors/3d/navigation_feel/orbit_inertia

The inertia to use when orbiting in the 3D editor. Higher values make the camera start and stop slower, which looks smoother but adds latency.

float editors/3d/navigation_feel/orbit_sensitivity

The mouse sensitivity to use when orbiting in the 3D editor. See also editors/3d/freelook/freelook_sensitivity.

float editors/3d/navigation_feel/translation_inertia

The inertia to use when panning in the 3D editor. Higher values make the camera start and stop slower, which looks smoother but adds latency.

float editors/3d/navigation_feel/zoom_inertia

The inertia to use when zooming in the 3D editor. Higher values make the camera start and stop slower, which looks smoother but adds latency.

Color editors/3d/primary_grid_color

The color to use for the primary 3D grid. The color’s alpha channel affects the grid’s opacity.

int editors/3d/primary_grid_steps

If set above 0, where a primary grid line should be drawn. By default, primary lines are configured to be more visible than secondary lines. This helps with measurements in the 3D editor. See also editors/3d/primary_grid_color and editors/3d/secondary_grid_color.

Color editors/3d/secondary_grid_color

The color to use for the secondary 3D grid. This is generally a less visible color than editors/3d/primary_grid_color. The color’s alpha channel affects the grid’s opacity.

Color editors/3d/selection_box_color

The color to use for the selection box that surrounds selected nodes in the 3D editor viewport. The color’s alpha channel influences the selection box’s opacity.

Color editors/3d_gizmos/gizmo_colors/instantiated

The color override to use for 3D editor gizmos if the Node3D in question is part of an instantiated scene file (from the perspective of the current scene).

Color editors/3d_gizmos/gizmo_colors/joint

The 3D editor gizmo color for Joint3Ds and PhysicalBone3Ds.

Color editors/3d_gizmos/gizmo_colors/shape

The 3D editor gizmo color for CollisionShape3Ds, VehicleWheel3Ds, RayCast3Ds and SpringArm3Ds.

bool editors/animation/autorename_animation_tracks

If true, automatically updates animation tracks’ target paths when renaming or reparenting nodes in the Scene tree dock.

bool editors/animation/default_create_bezier_tracks

If true, create a Bezier track instead of a standard track when pressing the “key” icon next to a property. Bezier tracks provide more control over animation curves, but are more difficult to adjust quickly.

bool editors/animation/default_create_reset_tracks

If true, create a RESET track when creating a new animation track. This track can be used to restore the animation to a “default” state.

Color editors/animation/onion_layers_future_color

The modulate color to use for “future” frames displayed in the animation editor’s onion skinning feature.

Color editors/animation/onion_layers_past_color

The modulate color to use for “past” frames displayed in the animation editor’s onion skinning feature.

float editors/grid_map/pick_distance

The maximum distance at which tiles can be placed on a GridMap, relative to the camera position (in 3D units).

int editors/panning/2d_editor_pan_speed

The panning speed when using the mouse wheel or touchscreen events in the 2D editor. This setting does not apply to panning by holding down the middle or right mouse buttons.

int editors/panning/2d_editor_panning_scheme

Controls whether the mouse wheel scroll zooms or pans in the 2D editor. See also editors/panning/sub_editors_panning_scheme and editors/panning/animation_editors_panning_scheme.

int editors/panning/animation_editors_panning_scheme

Controls whether the mouse wheel scroll zooms or pans in the animation track and Bezier editors. See also editors/panning/2d_editor_panning_scheme and editors/panning/sub_editors_panning_scheme (which controls the animation blend tree editor’s pan behavior).

bool editors/panning/simple_panning

If true, allows panning by holding down Space in the 2D editor viewport (in addition to panning with the middle or right mouse buttons). If false, the left mouse button must be held down while holding down Space to pan in the 2D editor viewport.

int editors/panning/sub_editors_panning_scheme

Controls whether the mouse wheel scroll zooms or pans in subeditors. The list of affected subeditors is: animation blend tree editor, Polygon2D editor, tileset editor, texture region editor and visual shader editor. See also editors/panning/2d_editor_panning_scheme and editors/panning/animation_editors_panning_scheme.

bool editors/panning/warped_mouse_panning

If true, warps the mouse around the 2D viewport while panning in the 2D editor. This makes it possible to pan over a large area without having to exit panning and adjust the mouse cursor.

int editors/polygon_editor/point_grab_radius

The radius in which points can be selected in the Polygon2D and CollisionPolygon2D editors (in pixels). Higher values make it easier to select points quickly, but can make it more difficult to select the expected point when several points are located close to each other.

bool editors/polygon_editor/show_previous_outline

If true, displays the polygon’s previous shape in the 2D polygon editors with an opaque gray outline. This outline is displayed while dragging a point until the left mouse button is released.

bool editors/shader_editor/behavior/files/restore_shaders_on_load

If true, reopens shader files that were open in the shader editor when the project was last closed.

bool editors/tiles_editor/display_grid

If true, displays a grid while the TileMap editor is active. See also editors/tiles_editor/grid_color.

Color editors/tiles_editor/grid_color

The color to use for the TileMap editor’s grid.

Note: Only effective if editors/tiles_editor/display_grid is true.

float editors/visual_editors/lines_curvature

The curvature to use for connection lines in the visual shader editor. Higher values will make connection lines appear more curved, with values above 0.5 resulting in more “angular” turns in the middle of connection lines.

float editors/visual_editors/minimap_opacity

The opacity of the minimap displayed in the bottom-right corner of the visual shader editor.

int editors/visual_editors/visual_shader/port_preview_size

The size to use for port previews in the visual shader uniforms (toggled by clicking the “eye” icon next to an output). The value is defined in pixels at 100% zoom, and will scale with zoom automatically.

String filesystem/directories/autoscan_project_path

The folder where projects should be scanned for (recursively), in a way similar to the project manager’s Scan button. This can be set to the same value as filesystem/directories/default_project_path for convenience.

Note: Setting this path to a folder with very large amounts of files/folders can slow down the project manager startup significantly. To keep the project manager quick to start up, it is recommended to set this value to a folder as “specific” as possible.

String filesystem/directories/default_project_path

The folder where new projects should be created by default when clicking the project manager’s New Project button. This can be set to the same value as filesystem/directories/autoscan_project_path for convenience.

String filesystem/external_programs/3d_model_editor

The program that opens 3D model scene files when clicking “Open in External Program” option in Filesystem Dock. If not specified, the file will be opened in the system’s default program.

String filesystem/external_programs/audio_editor

The program that opens audio files when clicking “Open in External Program” option in Filesystem Dock. If not specified, the file will be opened in the system’s default program.

String filesystem/external_programs/raster_image_editor

The program that opens raster image files when clicking “Open in External Program” option in Filesystem Dock. If not specified, the file will be opened in the system’s default program.

String filesystem/external_programs/vector_image_editor

The program that opens vector image files when clicking “Open in External Program” option in Filesystem Dock. If not specified, the file will be opened in the system’s default program.

int filesystem/file_dialog/display_mode

The display mode to use in the editor’s file dialogs.

• 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/import/blender/blender3_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 Godot’s created process of the blender executable.

Setting this to 0 effectively disables communication with Godot 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 Godot 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/fbx/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.

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.

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 Godot both on Windows and macOS/Linux and your Godot 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.

bool interface/editor/debug/enable_pseudolocalization

If true, lengthens the editor’s localizable strings and replaces their characters with accented variants. This allows spotting non-localizable strings easily, while also ensuring the UI layout doesn’t break when strings are made longer (as many languages require strings to be longer).

This is a debugging feature and should only be enabled when working on the editor itself.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

float 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.

String interface/editor/main_font

    "name": "category/property_name",
    "type": TYPE_INT,
    "hint": PROPERTY_HINT_ENUM,
    "hint_string": "one,two,three"
}
settings.add_property_info(property_info)

var settings = GetEditorInterface().GetEditorSettings();
settings.Set("category/property_name", 0);
var propertyInfo = new Godot.Collections.Dictionary
{
    {"name", "category/propertyName"},
    {"type", Variant.Type.Int},
    {"hint", PropertyHint.Enum},
    {"hint_string", "one,two,three"}
};
settings.AddPropertyInfo(propertyInfo);

bool check_changed_settings_in_group ( String setting_prefix ) const

Checks if any settings with the prefix setting_prefix exist in the set of changed settings. See also get_changed_settings.

void erase ( String property )

Erases the setting whose name is specified by property.

PackedStringArray get_changed_settings ( ) const

PackedStringArray get_favorites ( ) const

Returns the list of favorite files and directories for this project.

Variant get_project_metadata ( String section, String key, Variant default=null ) const

Returns project-specific metadata for the section and key specified. If the metadata doesn’t exist, default will be returned instead. See also set_project_metadata.

PackedStringArray get_recent_dirs ( ) const
