-				If [code]enable[/code] is [code]true[/code], the node won't inherit its transform from parent canvas items.
+				If [code]enable[/code] is [code]true[/code], this [CanvasItem] will [i]not[/i] inherit its transform from parent [CanvasItem]s. Its draw order will also be changed to make it draw on top of other [CanvasItem]s that are not set as top-level. The [CanvasItem] will effectively act as if it was placed as a child of a bare [Node]. See also [method is_set_as_toplevel].
