Text#

class Text#

A text label. Added to a Canvas or a Panel.

rect_transform#

The rect transform for the UI object.

Attribute:

Read-only, cannot be set

Return type:

RectTransform

layout_element#

How much space the UI object asks a layout for.

Attribute:

Read-only, cannot be set

Return type:

LayoutElement

Note

Only has an effect when the object is in a panel that has a layout. A canvas is not inside a layout and does not have one.

visible#

Whether the UI object is visible.

Attribute:

Can be read or written

Return type:

bool

Note

This is the object’s own setting, which is what it was last set to. An object is only drawn when everything it is inside is visible as well, so an interface can be built with its parts visible, inside a panel that is not, and shown all at once by making that panel visible.

content#

The text string

Attribute:

Can be read or written

Return type:

str

word_wrap#

Whether the text wraps onto further lines when it is wider than the space it has. Text that does not wrap carries on past the edge, and its preferred size is that of a single line, so a changing value leaves a layout in place.

Attribute:

Can be read or written

Return type:

bool

font#

Name of the font

Attribute:

Can be read or written

Return type:

str

Note

Empty if the game provided no font to draw the text with, in which case it is not drawn. See Text.available_fonts for the names that can be set.
