.. _class_World2D_get_canvas:

- :ref:`RID<class_rid>`  **get_canvas**  **(** **)**

Retrieve the :ref:`RID<class_rid>` of this world's canvas resource. Used by the :ref:`VisualServer<class_visualserver>` for 2D drawing.

.. _class_World2D_get_direct_space_state:

- :ref:`Physics2DDirectSpaceState<class_physics2ddirectspacestate>`  **get_direct_space_state**  **(** **)**

Retrieve the state of this world's physics space. This allows arbitrary querying for collision.

.. _class_World2D_get_space:

- :ref:`RID<class_rid>`  **get_space**  **(** **)**

Retrieve the :ref:`RID<class_rid>` of this world's physics space resource. Used by the :ref:`Physics2DServer<class_physics2dserver>` for 2D physics, treating it as both a space and an area.
