Blue guide lines in editor

Goatfacekilla

These blue boxes show up around all of my control nodes in the editor. It's very distracting. What are these, and how do I hide them? Thanks in advance for your help!

They look like guides. You can press the View button on the top middle of the editor to show/hide these options.

I've tried this; they don't go away! Any other ideas?

Which of the lines? You mean the origin? Again view menu.

The light blue lines that are all over this picture. I've tried unchecking all of the view options, and none of them make these lines go away.

Megalomaniak

Those are no guides, guides continue past the editor viewport into the infinity. These are likely produced by some node in your scene tree.

Goatfacekilla

Right, they are associated with all of the control nodes. When I hide a control node, the blue box disappears. But how to hide them without hiding my nodes?

cybereality

Weird. I've never seen that. Why do you have so many nodes?

Goatfacekilla

Codebreaker game. There's a node for each slot in the board, where you enter your guess. There's a vboxcontainer with a bunch of hboxcontainers, each with 4 control nodes as children.

cybereality

Well if you are not working on those nodes you can hide them with the eye icon on the left. It should make the lines disappear.

Goatfacekilla

They're parents of most things, so it would effectively make the project disappear. Anyway, I'd like to know what they are, not just make them go away.

cybereality

Like I said, I've never seen that and I've been using Godot for 2 years, so I don't know.

Megalomaniak

Can you show your nodes in the scenetree?

Goatfacekilla

First pic is the main game scene, second is the hboxcontainer scene that's instanced a bunch of times in the main scene.

TwistedTwigleg

In the second scene, which node(s) cause the lines to disappear when you hide them? Does the Marks node hide the blue lines or the Hole1 through Hole4 nodes?

Looking at the pictures, it just occurred to me that the blue boxes may be the particles visibility AABB boxes. Do you have a lot of Particles2D or CPUParticles2D nodes in your scene?

Megalomaniak

it looks like they are produced by all the children of HBox and VBox nodes. But I agree with @TwistedTwigleg that it might actually be the particles. Since the only project here where I saw something like it(only one tho) was a project that had a particles node in it and it was produced by that particles node.

Goatfacekilla

Thanks, @Megalomaniak and @TwistedTwigleg . It was the particles! I'll just hide them until they fire. Thanks again!
