ViewportContainer
=================

**Inherits:** :ref:`Container<class_Container>` **<** :ref:`Control<class_Control>` **<** :ref:`CanvasItem<class_CanvasItem>` **<** :ref:`Node<class_Node>` **<** :ref:`Object<class_Object>`

Control for holding :ref:`Viewport<class_Viewport>`\ s.

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

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

A :ref:`Container<class_Container>` node that holds a :ref:`Viewport<class_Viewport>`, automatically setting the viewport's size.

\ **Note:** Changing a ViewportContainer's :ref:`Control.rect_scale<class_Control_property_rect_scale>` will cause its contents to appear distorted. To change its visual size without causing distortion, adjust the node's margins instead (if it's not already in a container).

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

.. _class_ViewportContainer_property_stretch:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

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

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

- void **set_stretch** **(** :ref:`bool<class_bool>` value **)**
- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_stretch_enabled** **(** **)**

If ``true``, the viewport will be scaled to the control's size.

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

----

.. _class_ViewportContainer_property_stretch_shrink:

.. rst-class:: classref-property

:ref:`int<class_int>` **stretch_shrink** = ``1``

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

- void **set_stretch_shrink** **(** :ref:`int<class_int>` value **)**
- :ref:`int<class_int>` **get_stretch_shrink** **(** **)**

Divides the viewport's effective resolution by this value while preserving its scale. This can be used to speed up rendering.

For example, a 1280×720 viewport with :ref:`stretch_shrink<class_ViewportContainer_property_stretch_shrink>` set to ``2`` will be rendered at 640×360 while occupying the same size in the container.

\ **Note:** :ref:`stretch<class_ViewportContainer_property_stretch>` must be ``true`` for this property to work.
