Abstract base class for everything in 2D space.
</brief_description>
<description>
Abstract base class for everything in 2D space. Canvas items are laid out in a tree; children inherit and extend their parent's transform. [CanvasItem] is extended by [Control] for GUI-related nodes, and by [Node2D] for 2D game objects.
Any [CanvasItem] can draw. For this, [method queue_redraw] is called by the engine, then [constant NOTIFICATION_DRAW] will be received on idle time to request a redraw. Because of this, canvas items don't need to be redrawn on every frame, improving the performance significantly. Several functions for drawing on the [CanvasItem] are provided (see [code]draw_*[/code] functions). However, they can only be used inside [method _draw], its corresponding [method Object._notification] or methods connected to the [signal draw] signal.
Canvas items are drawn in tree order on their canvas layer. By default, children are on top of their parents, so a root [CanvasItem] will be drawn behind everything. This behavior can be changed on a per-item basis.
A [CanvasItem] can be hidden, which will also hide its children. By adjusting various other properties of a [CanvasItem], you can also modulate its color (via [member modulate] or [member self_modulate]), change its Z-index, blend mode, and more.
Note that properties like transform, modulation, and visibility are only propagated to [i]direct[/i] [CanvasItem] child nodes. If there is a non-[CanvasItem] node in between, like [Node] or [AnimationPlayer], the [CanvasItem] nodes below will have an independent position and [member modulate] chain. See also [member top_level].

<methods>
<method name="_draw" qualifiers="virtual">
<return type="void" />
<description>
Called when [CanvasItem] has been requested to redraw (after [method queue_redraw] is called, either manually or by the engine).
Corresponds to the [constant NOTIFICATION_DRAW] notification in [method Object._notification].

<param index="3" name="offset" type="float" default="0.0" />
<description>
Subsequent drawing commands will be ignored unless they fall within the specified animation slice. This is a faster way to implement animations that loop on background rather than redrawing constantly.

<param index="7" name="antialiased" type="bool" default="false" />
<description>
Draws an unfilled arc between the given angles with a uniform [param color] and [param width] and optional antialiasing (supported only for positive [param width]). The larger the value of [param point_count], the smoother the curve. See also [method draw_circle].
If [param width] is negative, it will be ignored and the arc will be drawn using [constant RenderingServer.PRIMITIVE_LINE_STRIP]. This means that when the CanvasItem is scaled, the arc will remain thin. If this behavior is not desired, then pass a positive [param width] like [code]1.0[/code].
The arc is drawn from [param start_angle] towards the value of [param end_angle] so in clockwise direction if [code]start_angle < end_angle[/code] and counter-clockwise otherwise. Passing the same angles but in reversed order will produce the same arc. If absolute difference of [param start_angle] and [param end_angle] is greater than [constant @GDScript.TAU] radians, then a full circle arc is drawn (i.e. arc will not overlap itself).

<description>
Draws a circle. See also [method draw_arc], [method draw_polyline], and [method draw_polygon].
If [param filled] is [code]true[/code], the circle will be filled with the [param color] specified. If [param filled] is [code]false[/code], the circle will be drawn as a stroke with the [param color] and [param width] specified.
If [param width] is negative, then two-point primitives will be drawn instead of a four-point ones. This means that when the CanvasItem is scaled, the lines will remain thin. If this behavior is not desired, then pass a positive [param width] like [code]1.0[/code].
If [param antialiased] is [code]true[/code], half transparent "feathers" will be attached to the boundary, making outlines smooth.

<description>
Draws a colored polygon of any number of points, convex or concave. Unlike [method draw_polygon], a single color must be specified for the whole polygon.
[b]Note:[/b] If you frequently redraw the same polygon with a large number of vertices, consider pre-calculating the triangulation with [method Geometry2D.triangulate_polygon] and using [method draw_mesh], [method draw_multimesh], or [method RenderingServer.canvas_item_add_triangle_array].

<description>
Draws a dashed line from a 2D point to another, with a given color and width. See also [method draw_multiline] and [method draw_polyline].
If [param width] is negative, then a two-point primitives will be drawn instead of a four-point ones. This means that when the CanvasItem is scaled, the line parts will remain thin. If this behavior is not desired, then pass a positive [param width] like [code]1.0[/code].
If [param antialiased] is [code]true[/code], half transparent "feathers" will be attached to the boundary, making outlines smooth.

<description>
Draws multiple disconnected lines with a uniform [param width] and [param color]. Each line is defined by two consecutive points from [param points] array, i.e. i-th segment consists of [code]points[2 * i][/code], [code]points[2 * i + 1][/code] endpoints.

Draws interconnected line segments with a uniform [param width], point-by-point coloring, and optional antialiasing (supported only for positive [param width]). Colors assigned to line points match by index between [param points] and [param colors], i.e. each line segment is filled with a gradient between the colors of the endpoints. When drawing large amounts of lines, this is faster than using individual [method draw_line] calls. To draw disconnected lines, use [method draw_multiline_colors] instead.

Sets a custom transform for drawing via components. Anything drawn afterwards will be transformed by this.
[b]Note:[/b] [member FontFile.oversampling] does [i]not[/i] take [param scale] into account. This means that scaling up/down will cause bitmap fonts and rasterized (non-MSDF) dynamic fonts to appear blurry or pixelated. To ensure text remains crisp regardless of scale, you can enable MSDF font rendering by enabling [member ProjectSettings.gui/theme/default_font_multichannel_signed_distance_field] (applies to the default project font only), or enabling [b]Multichannel Signed Distance Field[/b] in the import options of a DynamicFont for custom fonts.

<return type="bool" />
<description>
Returns [code]true[/code] if the node is present in the [SceneTree], its [member visible] property is [code]true[/code] and all its ancestors are also visible. If any ancestor is hidden, this node will not be visible in the scene tree, and is therefore not drawn (see [method _draw]).
Visibility is checked only in parent nodes that inherit from [CanvasItem], [CanvasLayer], and [Window]. If the parent is of any other type (such as [Node], [AnimationPlayer], or [Node3D]), it is assumed to be visible.
[b]Note:[/b] This method does not take [member visibility_layer] into account, so even if this method returns [code]true[/code] the node might end up not being rendered.

With Y-sorting enabled on a parent node ('A') but disabled on a child node ('B'), the child node ('B') is sorted but its children ('C1', 'C2', etc) render together on the same Y position as the child node ('B'). This allows you to organize the render order of a scene without changing the scene tree.
Nodes sort relative to each other only if they are on the same [member z_index].
