Can I make a sprite out of text/with text

Hello.

I do not want to use a label. I would like to make a sprite where the image is just a string. as such its a little impractical to creature a texture of every string and import into the project, so I am looking for a solution where when the sprite is created dynamically I can assign its “text texture” value.

Thanks again!

I would suggest using CanvasItem.draw_string() for this.

See Custom Drawing in 2D if you’re unfamiliar with the custom drawing workflow.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.
