EditorInterface
===============

**Inherits:** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Godot editor's interface.

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

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

**EditorInterface** gives you control over Godot editor's window. It allows customizing the window, saving and (re-)loading scenes, rendering mesh previews, inspecting and editing resources and objects, and provides access to :ref:`EditorSettings<class_EditorSettings>`, :ref:`EditorFileSystem<class_EditorFileSystem>`, :ref:`EditorResourcePreview<class_EditorResourcePreview>`, :ref:`ScriptEditor<class_ScriptEditor>`, the editor viewport, and information about scenes.

\ **Note:** This class shouldn't be instantiated directly. Instead, access the singleton directly by its name.


.. tabs::

 .. code-tab:: gdscript

    var editor_settings = EditorInterface.get_editor_settings()

 .. code-tab:: csharp

    // In C# you can access it via the static Singleton property.
    EditorSettings settings = EditorInterface.Singleton.GetEditorSettings();

**Experimental:** This method may be changed or removed in future versions.

Pops up an editor dialog for creating an object.

The ``callback`` must take a single argument of type :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` which will contain the type name of the selected object or be empty if no item is selected.

The ``base_type`` specifies the base type of objects to display. For example, if you set this to "Resource", all types derived from :ref:`Resource<class_Resource>` will display in the create dialog.

The ``current_type`` will be passed in the search box of the create dialog, and the specified type can be immediately selected when the dialog pops up. If the ``current_type`` is not derived from ``base_type``, there will be no result of the type in the dialog.

The ``dialog_title`` allows you to define a custom title for the dialog. This is useful if you want to accurately hint the usage of the dialog. If the ``dialog_title`` is an empty string, the dialog will use "Create New 'Base Type'" as the default title.

The ``type_blocklist`` contains a list of type names, and the types in the blocklist will be hidden from the create dialog.

\ **Note:** Trying to list the base type in the ``type_blocklist`` will hide all types derived from the base type from the create dialog.

Pops up an editor dialog for selecting a method from ``object``. The ``callback`` must take a single argument of type :ref:`String<class_String>` which will contain the name of the selected method or be empty if the dialog is canceled. If ``current_value`` is provided, the method will be selected automatically in the method list, if it exists.

Pops up an editor dialog for selecting a :ref:`Node<class_Node>` from the edited scene. The ``callback`` must take a single argument of type :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>`. It is called on the selected :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>` or the empty path ``^""`` if the dialog is canceled. If ``valid_types`` is provided, the dialog will only show Nodes that match one of the listed Node types. If ``current_value`` is provided, the Node will be automatically selected in the tree, if it exists.

\ **Example:** Display the node selection dialog as soon as this node is added to the tree for the first time:

Pops up an editor dialog for selecting properties from ``object``. The ``callback`` must take a single argument of type :ref:`NodePath<class_NodePath>`. It is called on the selected property path (see :ref:`NodePath.get_as_property_path()<class_NodePath_method_get_as_property_path>`) or the empty path ``^""`` if the dialog is canceled.
