Not sure if restricted to Android but TouchScreenButton has the visibility mode option where you can put TouchScreenOnly.

Also via code with set_visibility_mode.

In project settings>display you can toggle emulate touchscreen to see the buttons in touch screen only mode.

Hello,

But on a no Touch System the buttons still visable.

To see it when you are not on a touch screen you must enable the option "emulate touch from mouse" on project settings.

Test it with the Platformer Demo if you can't see it in your project, it could be that is misplaced or behind another node (use the remote inspector to locate the node).
