Make a ColorRect to occupy the most possible space

artium

I have a ColorRect whose content is drawn with a shader.
I want it to expand and occupy all the available space possible (eg whole screen minus margins if it is inside margin control, or all the space left by other controls if it is in HBox). It should keep its aspect ratio.

Is there a way to do it with nodes or do I need to implement this in code?

artium Set rect's layout mode to "Anchors" and anchor preset to "Full Rect"

xyz Thanks, it does not work as expected for me. The hierarchy is: Root -> Canvas Layer -> Margin Container (Full Rect) -> Control (sub scene root, Full Rect) -> Color Rect (Anchors, Full Rect). The result is it being stretched on the whole screen and not respected the margins of the margin container.

artium Well you need the parent to be the whole screen, not other smaller container.

artium

Parent of the ColorRect? Could you write the full hierarchy you suggest? The issue now is that it does take the whole screen, and ignores margin and aspect ratio.

artium Show the screenshot of what it does and a mockup of what you want it to do.

xyz I have posted the screenshot of what it looks like above, does not it appear? As to what I want to happen is that the grid in the image will have 1:1 ratio and a margin of 200 px from the top. Currently it stretches it to fill the screen.

artium Switch anchor presets to custom and adjust whichever margin you need.
