I found every tutorial is trying to give you ONE screen with EVERYTHING in it, but when I need something simple, I can’t figure out what is needed and what is not, neither do I know where to find the tutorial I need when somethings goes wrong. Is there anything like an UI EXAMPLE GALLERY where lots of simple(or complex) cases and correspond settings are listed and then I can easily figure out what to do?
Most of the main UI elements each have a very nice and long description and examples to go along with them in the official documentation. This should be a nice way to get you started. The rest of the docs also show you what each node has and what it does.
Thank you very much for your instruction. I know that Godot is a incredibly good project and has detailed descriptions, but I think there should be a more straightforward way to show every possibility instead of “Go through every word in Docs and you will understand”, I’m sorry to mention something other than Godot but I think a good example is Manim’s Gallery: Example Gallery - Manim Community v0.19.0
Going through the Docs is difficult to do these two things: One is “I need some simple case that intergrate some easy usage of something, neither a demonstration of function nor an over decorated template”, another is “When I need help, I don’t know what should I search, I will know what I need only when I see the exactly solution, then I will think of a Gallery of all example cases is useful, therefore I won’t waste time in random searching”
You mean like this?
On a side note, I think it’s very important to learn how to read documentation and understand it. Godot’s documentation is one of the best I’ve come across so far, and learning how to extract information out that you need is an important skill of every developer. You can’t always rely on overly simplified examples and step-by-step tutorials, otherwise you won’t learn how to make something by yourself.
I’d like to add the fact that one should often check the asset library for new Control nodes.
As an instance, I recently found a nice Spinner there, so, one could even find a list of various examples and still missing nice ones because the assets library is updated frequently.
