For a sec I was like “what is this person even talking about?!” and then I noticed the property is not actually exposed correctly… You can do it like this:
Peculiar.
Working with this progress bar over my buildings and I cant figure out how to make it stop casting a shadow.

You can turn off Cast Shadow for individual actors in the details tab. If its a blueprint make sure you select the mesh inside the blueprint.
Thank you worked perfectly. yeah when I didn’t see anything in the details panel besides the mobile csm shadows thing I figured I was missing something.

Ya that was the whole problem for a 3D widget that isn’t in the details panel. The variable for it is not exposed.
Yes I answered straight after you posted your question, before you clarified that the cast shadows variable was not exposed, but the reply has only come through now.
I wonder if the missing flag is a new feature in UE 4.24 or it’s always been missing. I was under the impression it has always been there until you pointed out it actually is not. Oh well.

Not working with UE5.0. What a shame. Such simple stuff not working…

In 5.1 the property is still not exposed correctly and you have to do the little work-around, but at least that works.

This cast shadow property still hasn’t been exposed in 5.2.1.
5.4, Still not exposed
(post deleted by author)
still not exposed in 5.5, also the new first person flag in 5.5 doesn’t seem to activate on a 3d widget, despite the flat being on in its properties, it still renders in world space
