An input field for single-line text.

LineEdit provides an input field for editing a single line of text. It features many built-in shortcuts that are always available (Ctrl here maps to Cmd on macOS):

  • Ctrl + K: Delete text from the caret position to the end of the line

  • Ctrl + A: Select all text

  • Up Arrow/Down Arrow: Move the caret to the beginning/end of the line

On macOS, some extra keyboard shortcuts are available:

  • Cmd + F: Same as Right Arrow, move the caret one character right

  • Cmd + B: Same as Left Arrow, move the caret one character left

  • Cmd + P: Same as Up Arrow, move the caret to the previous line

  • Cmd + N: Same as Down Arrow, move the caret to the next line

  • Cmd + D: Same as Delete, delete the character on the right side of caret

  • Cmd + H: Same as Backspace, delete the character on the left side of the caret

  • Cmd + A: Same as Home, move the caret to the beginning of the line

  • Cmd + E: Same as End, move the caret to the end of the line

  • Cmd + Left Arrow: Same as Home, move the caret to the beginning of the line

  • Cmd + Right Arrow: Same as End, move the caret to the end of the line

 bool caret_blink<>():bool

If true, makes the caret blink.

 float caret_blink_interval<>():float

The interval at which the caret blinks (in seconds).

 int caret_column<>():int

The caret's column position inside the LineEdit. When set, the text may scroll to accommodate it.

 bool caret_force_displayed<>():bool

If true, the LineEdit will always show the caret, even if focus is lost.

 bool caret_mid_grapheme<>():bool

Allow moving caret, selecting and removing the individual composite character components.

Note: Backspace is always removing individual composite character components.

 bool clear_button_enabled<>():bool

If true, the LineEdit will show a clear button if text is not empty, which can be used to clear the text quickly.

 bool context_menu_enabled<>():bool

If true, the context menu will appear when right-clicked.

 bool deselect_on_focus_loss_enabled<>():bool

If true, the selected text will be deselected when focus is lost.

 bool drag_and_drop_selection_enabled<>():bool

If true, allow drag and drop of selected text.

 bool draw_control_chars<>():bool

If true, control characters are displayed.

 bool editable<>():bool

If false, existing text cannot be modified and new text cannot be added.

 bool expand_to_text_length<>():bool

If true, the LineEdit width will increase to stay longer than the text. It will not compress if the text is shortened.

If true, the LineEdit doesn't display decoration.

 String language<>():String

Language code used for line-breaking and text shaping algorithms. If left empty, current locale is used instead.

 int max_length<>():int

Maximum number of characters that can be entered inside the LineEdit. If 0, there is no limit.

When a limit is defined, characters that would exceed max_length are truncated. This happens both for existing text contents when setting the max length, or for new text inserted in the LineEdit, including pasting. If any input text is truncated, the text_change_rejected signal is emitted with the truncated substring as parameter.

Example:

text = "Hello world" max_length = 5 # `text` becomes "Hello". max_length = 10 text += " goodbye" # `text` becomes "Hello good". # `text_change_rejected` is emitted with "bye" as parameter.

If false, using middle mouse button to paste clipboard will be disabled.

Note: This method is only implemented on Linux.

Erases the LineEdit's text.

 void delete_char_at_caret<>():void

 void delete_text<>( int from_column=, from_column:int=, int to_column=, to_column:int=, ):void

 PopupMenu get_menu<>():PopupMenu

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

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:

func _ready(): var menu = get_menu() # Remove all items after "Redo". menu.item_count = menu.get_item_index(MENU_REDO) + 1 # Add custom items. menu.add_separator() menu.add_item("Insert Date", MENU_MAX + 1) # Connect callback. menu.id_pressed.connect(_on_item_pressed) func _on_item_pressed(id): if id == MENU_MAX + 1: insert_text_at_caret(Time.get_date_string_from_system())

Warning: This is a required internal node, removing and freeing it may cause a crash. If you wish to hide it or any of its children, use their Window.visible property.
