DisplayServer

Inherits: Object

A server interface for low-level window management.

Description

DisplayServer handles everything related to window management. It is separated from OS as a single operating system may support multiple display servers.

Headless mode: Starting the engine with the --headless command line argument disables all rendering and window management functions. Most functions from DisplayServer will return dummy values in this case.

On Windows: Multi-window full-screen mode has a 1px border of the ProjectSettings.rendering/environment/defaults/default_clear_color color.

On macOS: A new desktop is used to display the running project.

Note: Regardless of the platform, enabling full screen will change the window size to match the monitor’s size. Therefore, make sure your project supports multiple resolutions when enabling full screen mode.

WindowMode WINDOW_MODE_EXCLUSIVE_FULLSCREEN = 4

A single window full screen mode. This mode has less overhead, but only one window can be open on a given screen at a time (opening a child window or application switching will trigger a full screen transition).

Full screen window covers the entire display area of a screen and has no border or decorations. The display’s video mode is not changed.

On Windows: Depending on video driver, full screen transition might cause screens to go black for a moment.

On macOS: A new desktop is used to display the running project. Exclusive full screen mode prevents Dock and Menu from showing up when the mouse pointer is hovering the edge of the screen.

On Linux (X11): Exclusive full screen mode bypasses compositor.

Note: Regardless of the platform, enabling full screen will change the window size to match the monitor’s size. Therefore, make sure your project supports multiple resolutions when enabling full screen mode.

An active popup window will exclusively receive all input, without stealing focus from its parent. Popup windows are automatically closed when uses click outside it, or when an application is switched. Popup window must have transient parent set (see window_set_transient).

WindowFlags WINDOW_FLAG_EXTEND_TO_TITLE = 6

Window content is expanded to the full size of the window. Unlike borderless window, the frame is left intact and can be used to resize the window, title bar is transparent, but have minimize/maximize/close buttons.

Note: This flag is implemented only on macOS.

enum VSyncMode: 🔗

VSyncMode VSYNC_DISABLED = 0

No vertical synchronization, which means the engine will display frames as fast as possible (tearing may be visible). Framerate is unlimited (regardless of Engine.max_fps).

VSyncMode VSYNC_ENABLED = 1

Default vertical synchronization mode, the image is displayed only on vertical blanking intervals (no tearing is visible). Framerate is limited by the monitor refresh rate (regardless of Engine.max_fps).

VSyncMode VSYNC_ADAPTIVE = 2

Behaves like VSYNC_DISABLED when the framerate drops below the screen’s refresh rate to reduce stuttering (tearing may be visible). Otherwise, vertical synchronization is enabled to avoid tearing. Framerate is limited by the monitor refresh rate (regardless of Engine.max_fps). Behaves like VSYNC_ENABLED when using the Compatibility rendering method.

VSyncMode VSYNC_MAILBOX = 3

Although not guaranteed, the images can be rendered as fast as possible, which may reduce input lag (also called “Fast” V-Sync mode). VSYNC_MAILBOX works best when at least twice as many frames as the display refresh rate are rendered. Behaves like VSYNC_ENABLED when using the Compatibility rendering method.

# Set region, using Path2D node.
DisplayServer.window_set_mouse_passthrough($Path2D.curve.get_baked_points())
# Set region, using Polygon2D node.
DisplayServer.window_set_mouse_passthrough($Polygon2D.polygon)
