It works by registering methods and property changes inside "actions". Common behavior is to create an action, then add do/undo calls to functions or property changes, then committing the action. Here's an example on how to add an action to the Godot editor's own [UndoRedo], from a plugin: [codeblock] var undo_redo = get_undo_redo() # Method of EditorPlugin. func do_something(): pass # Put your code here. func undo_something(): pass # Put here the code that reverts what's done by "do_something()". func _on_MyButton_pressed(): var node = get_node("MyNode2D") undo_redo.create_action("Move the node") undo_redo.add_do_method(self, "do_something") undo_redo.add_undo_method(self, "undo_something") undo_redo.add_do_property(node, "position", Vector2(100,100)) undo_redo.add_undo_property(node, "position", node.position) undo_redo.commit_action() [/codeblock] [method create_action], [method add_do_method], [method add_undo_method], [method add_do_property], [method add_undo_property], and [method commit_action] should be called one after the other, like in the example. Not doing so could lead to crashes. If you don't need to register a method, you can leave [method add_do_method] and [method add_undo_method] out; the same goes for properties. You can also register more than one method/property. </description> <tutorials> </tutorials> <methods> <method name="add_do_method" qualifiers="vararg"> <return type="Variant"> </return> <argument index="0" name="object" type="Object"> </argument> <argument index="1" name="method" type="String"> </argument> <description> Register a method that will be called when the action is committed. </description> </method> <method name="add_do_property"> <return type="void"> </return> <argument index="0" name="object" type="Object"> </argument> <argument index="1" name="property" type="String"> </argument> <argument index="2" name="value" type="Variant"> </argument> <description> Register a property value change for "do". </description> </method> <method name="add_do_reference"> <return type="void"> </return> <argument index="0" name="object" type="Object"> </argument> <description> Register a reference for "do" that will be erased if the "do" history is lost.
