For the Backspace key, you really just need to remove the last character in the visible string (if it contains characters). Here’s a simple example using a button to add an “A” character, a button to “Delete” and a label to display the current text.

To use it, you’ll need a scene with the following nodes:

Control
    ButtonA
    ButtonDel
    Label

Just wire the pressed() event of the two buttons to their handler functions in the below script.

extends Control

func _on_ButtonA_pressed():
	$Label.text += "A"
	
func _on_ButtonDel_pressed():
	var txt = $Label.text
	if txt.length() > 0:
		$Label.text = txt.substr(0, txt.length() - 1)

thank you, just testing it out then ill mark as the answer
