Properties

Methods

Signals

• about_to_show ( )

Emitted when a popup is about to be shown. This is often used in PopupMenu to clear the list of options then create a new one according to the current context.

• popup_hide ( )

Emitted when a popup is hidden.

Constants

• NOTIFICATION_POST_POPUP = 80 —- Notification sent right after the popup is shown.

• NOTIFICATION_POPUP_HIDE = 81 —- Notification sent right after the popup is hidden.

Property Descriptions

• bool popup_exclusive

If true, the popup will not be hidden when a click event occurs outside of it, or when it receives the ui_cancel action event.

Note: Enabling this property doesn’t affect the Close or Cancel buttons’ behavior in dialogs that inherit from this class. As a workaround, you can use WindowDialog.get_close_button or ConfirmationDialog.get_cancel and hide the buttons in question by setting their CanvasItem.visible property to false.
