Just want to hide the button so it’s not visible but it’s proving to be difficult.

func _ready() -> void :
	_title.get("custom_fonts/font").set_size(Settings.header_2_font_size)
	_content.get("custom_fonts/normal_font").set_size(Settings.narration_font_size)
	self.get_close_button().disabled = true #disabled button but it's still there
	self.get_close_button().hide() #does noting
	self.get_close_button().visible = false #does nothing
	self.get_close_button().add_color_override("disabled", Color("#00ffffff")) #also nothing

any one have any ideas? The documentation mentions using the CanvasItem.visible property but I have no idea what that means…

In 3.5, this works for me…

func _ready():
	$WindowDialog.get_close_button().visible = false
	$WindowDialog.popup()

In Godot 4.x you should override the theme icon name ‘close’ to a empty Texture2D to hide the close button.

alert_dialog.add_theme_icon_override("close", Texture2D.new())

Since the icon with no texture is collapse to rect size zero. So nobody can click it anymore.

Yes it works, but gives me these two errors:

E 0:00:00:0560 _gdvirtual__get_height_call: Required virtual method Texture2D::_get_height must be overridden before calling.
<Sorgente C++> scene/resources/texture.h:61 @ _gdvirtual__get_height_call()

E 0:00:00:0560 _gdvirtual__get_width_call: Required virtual method Texture2D::_get_width must be overridden before calling.
<Sorgente C++> scene/resources/texture.h:60 @ _gdvirtual__get_width_call()

Both if I do it before or after the “filedialog.popup_centered()”.
