Automatic Installation

Simply download and install the plugin from the AssetLib in the Godot Editor. Then go to ProjectSettings and enable it in the Plugins tab.

Manual Installation

This is a regular plugin for Godot. Copy the contents of addons/draw_anywhere/ into the res://addons/draw_anywhere/ folder which is in your project directory. Then go to ProjectSettings and enable it in the Plugins tab.

Optional: To exclude the plugin when exporting your project, you can add addons/draw_anywhere/* to the Filters to exclude files/folders from project in the Export settings.

Usage

Once the plugin is enabled, a new floating toolbar will appear. This toolbar has:

Button Description
Help button Shows keyboard shortcuts
Clear button Clears the drawing
Pen button Chooses the pen tool
Size slider Changes the pen size
Color picker Changes the pen color

When draw mode is active, an indicator will be shown in the bottom-left of the screen.

Limitations?

The global keyboard shortcut will work anywhere.

The toolbar will work everywhere except when there is a popup open eg. in EditorSettings, in ProjectSettings, etc. (not really a limitation since you can use the global keyboard shortcut to enable Draw mode)
