TextureProgressBar
==================

**Inherits:** :ref:`Range<class_Range>` **<** :ref:`Control<class_Control>` **<** :ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Texture-based progress bar. Useful for loading screens and life or stamina bars.

.. rst-class:: classref-introduction-group

Description
-----------

TextureProgressBar works like :ref:`ProgressBar<class_ProgressBar>`, but uses up to 3 textures instead of Godot's :ref:`Theme<class_Theme>` resource. It can be used to create horizontal, vertical and radial progress bars.

Property Descriptions
---------------------

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_fill_mode:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **fill_mode** = ``0``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_fill_mode** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_fill_mode** **(** **)**

The fill direction. See :ref:`FillMode<enum_TextureProgressBar_FillMode>` for possible values.

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_nine_patch_stretch:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`bool<class_bool>` **nine_patch_stretch** = ``false``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_nine_patch_stretch** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **get_nine_patch_stretch** **(** **)**

If ``true``, Godot treats the bar's textures like in :ref:`NinePatchRect<class_NinePatchRect>`. Use the ``stretch_margin_*`` properties like :ref:`stretch_margin_bottom<class_TextureProgressBar_property_stretch_margin_bottom>` to set up the nine patch's 3×3 grid. When using a radial :ref:`fill_mode<class_TextureProgressBar_property_fill_mode>`, this setting will enable stretching.

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_radial_center_offset:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` **radial_center_offset** = ``Vector2(0, 0)``

- void **set_radial_center_offset** **(** :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` value **)**
- :ref:`Vector2<class_Vector2>` **get_radial_center_offset** **(** **)**

Offsets :ref:`texture_progress<class_TextureProgressBar_property_texture_progress>` if :ref:`fill_mode<class_TextureProgressBar_property_fill_mode>` is :ref:`FILL_CLOCKWISE<class_TextureProgressBar_constant_FILL_CLOCKWISE>` or :ref:`FILL_COUNTER_CLOCKWISE<class_TextureProgressBar_constant_FILL_COUNTER_CLOCKWISE>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_radial_fill_degrees:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`float<class_float>` **radial_fill_degrees** = ``360.0``

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

When the node's ``value`` is equal to its ``max_value``, the texture fills up to this angle.

See :ref:`Range.value<class_Range_property_value>`, :ref:`Range.max_value<class_Range_property_max_value>`.

When the node's ``value`` is equal to its ``min_value``, the texture doesn't show up at all. When the ``value`` increases, the texture fills and tends towards :ref:`radial_fill_degrees<class_TextureProgressBar_property_radial_fill_degrees>`.

- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_stretch_margin** **(** :ref:`Side<enum_@GlobalScope_Side>` margin **)** |const|

The height of the 9-patch's bottom row. A margin of 16 means the 9-slice's bottom corners and side will have a height of 16 pixels. You can set all 4 margin values individually to create panels with non-uniform borders.

- :ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` **get_over_texture** **(** **)**

:ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` that draws over the progress bar. Use it to add highlights or an upper-frame that hides part of :ref:`texture_progress<class_TextureProgressBar_property_texture_progress>`.

.. rst-class:: classref-item-separator

----

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_texture_progress:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` **texture_progress**

.. rst-class:: classref-property-setget

- void **set_progress_texture** **(** :ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` value **)**
- :ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` **get_progress_texture** **(** **)**

:ref:`Texture2D<class_Texture2D>` that clips based on the node's ``value`` and :ref:`fill_mode<class_TextureProgressBar_property_fill_mode>`. As ``value`` increased, the texture fills up. It shows entirely when ``value`` reaches ``max_value``. It doesn't show at all if ``value`` is equal to ``min_value``.

The ``value`` property comes from :ref:`Range<class_Range>`. See :ref:`Range.value<class_Range_property_value>`, :ref:`Range.min_value<class_Range_property_min_value>`, :ref:`Range.max_value<class_Range_property_max_value>`.

.. _class_TextureProgressBar_property_tint_over:
