Hi!
I have a structured scene set like this:
- Root node (Position2D)
-- Area2D <-- Is an instance called by script
--- CollisionShape2DA <--- Is also an instance, set as Area2D child by script
----- SpriteA
--- CollisionShape2DB <--- Is also an instance, set as Area2D child by script
----- SpriteB
I have this as the Area2D script:
extends Area2D
func _input_event(viewport, event, shape_idx):
if event is InputEventMouseButton \
and event.button_index == BUTTON_LEFT \
and event.is_pressed():
self.on_click()
func on_click():
print("Click")
However, when I click on the CollisionShape, nothing is printed (While this works fine in a scene where Area2D and CollisionShape2D aren’t instances but already set nodes).
What am I doing wrong?
How do you instanciate them?

I instance the Area2D with:
var ThePlan = Position2D.new()
add_child(ThePlan)
ThePlan.set_name('ThePlan')
var TheArealoaded = load("res://TheArea.tscn")
var TheArea = TheArealoaded.instance()
ThePlan.add_child(TheArea)
TheArea.set_name("TheArea")
And each child is instanced by:
var obj = load(mypath)
var objinstance = obj.instance()
$ThePlan/TheArea.add_child(objinstance)
Here is a capture of the “remote inspector” (I don’t know how it’s called) showing that the scene is set up right when I launch it. I can also see that the script is attached to TheArea, however when I click on Handle1Area, it doesn’t print “click”.

Okay, I’ve solved it. The problem was that the root node of the scene where I instanced all of that was a Canvas. It blocked TheArea.
Does it mean that if I want a background, I should use a Sprite rather than a Canvas? Or maybe I just didn’t understand how to use a Canvas…
