Vector Graphics for Godot.

  • This is an experiment
  • It's written in C++ 11, so it's editor-only
  • All vector graphics can be converted into MeshInstance2Ds
  • I have very little time to work on this

Install and build

  • Check out this repo as git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/poke1024/godot_vector_graphics
  • Rename the whole repo folder to vector_graphics and move it into your Godot /modules folder (i.e. as /modules/vector_graphics).
  • Build godot using scons platform=your_platform.

Basic usage in Godot

Drag and drop an SVG into the 2d canvas.

Or: add a new VGPath node in your scene (under a Node2D).

In the inspector, set its Renderer to a new VGAdaptiveRenderer. Now, in the toolbar at the top, click on the circle. Drag and drop on the canvas to draw a vector circle.

Select a VGPath and double click onto it (while having the arrow tool selected) to see and edit control points and curves.

You can add new control points by clicking on a curve.

Select a control point and hit the delete key to remove it.

Rendering quality can be changed by editing the VGAdaptiveRenderer's quality setting (lower number means less triangles). You can do this interactively in the Godot editor.
