You do not need a Widget Interaction component for your mouse to interact with a widget component. The Widget Interaction component provides a simulation layer for the input.
Do you need a Widget Interaction component for something else than mouse clicks? Can you confirm this is not for mouse clicks?
Hello everybody,
i have a problem with the click on my buttons.
I know many people have this problem, but no thread helped me.
Button hovered works fine. Only the click does not work.
I have a plane with my 3D widget with 5 Buttons to switch to another cams.
Following option i have tried to fix it:
Added Hardware Input

Pointer is added

Show Cursor(tested also with “Input UI and Game”)

component for something else than
mouse clicks? Can you confirm this is

You did not answer my questions so can you at least tell whether it’s safe to assume that your Input Action Interact is not a left mouse button but a keyboard key instead? Or something else?
As in, you’re pointing the gun at something and wish to click on a widget component’s button; or you’re using a camera / screen centre to guide the interaction.
Also, the linked image is access denied.
I walk into a TriggerSphere and start it with Begin Overlap.
I only want click with left Mouse to use the Buttons.
Here my Widget:
I had only used the “interaction component” because i read from Thread i need to test it
ok i have deleted the “Widget Interaction component”.

I want change my Cams on a Plane with a Widget. Hovered is not working now, if i delete the “Widget Interaction component”.
I’m simply trying to understand what you’re trying to achieve. You’ve included a screenshot where you show the mouse cursor; if you’re after a classic mouse-widget interaction, you do not need an interaction component.
If you wish to point at something with the mouse and then use another input to simulate a click, then you do need an interaction component.
I only want click with left Mouse to
use the Buttons.
In this case, the only change needed is enabling Receiving Hardware Input on the widget component, the rest is at default settings:
The above is without the interaction component as we can use the mouse, no need to simulate it. So the question is what else you’ve got there going on that could interfere?
If you’re clicking those, what is the InputInteract for then? One thing that could prevent an interaction like this but still display the Hovered behaviour is Input Consumption.
If you’re Left Mouse Clicking those buttons, do you use the Left Mouse Button for anything else, in another blueprint, perhaps in the Level Blueprint? The LB can easily steal priority and consume input.
You could test it by switching to Input Mode UI Only; this will prevent the player controller from consuming input but will still allow you to use widgets.
Hovered is not more display because i delete the Widget Interaction component
InputInteract was only for the pawn, but i deleted it with the Widget Interaction component
“Input Mode UI Only” dont fix it

i have added Hardware Input

The behaviour I demonstrated in the animation is the default behaviour with just the Receive Hardware Input enabled. You need nothing else to interact with a 3d widget’s button + mouse click. Perhaps you’ve modified the behaviour of the button itself?
I do not know what else you’ve got going on in your project, what other interactions you’ve scripted. Consider testing it in a clean project:
That’s pretty much all it takes.
I tested “Input Game and UI” and “UI only”
As I said, test it in a clean project with minimum setup. No dispatchers, no interfaces, just a Print String to confirm things are working.
From the picture you’ve attached, how the heck is anyone supposed to figure out what else you’ve got going on. Something is not working, keep narrowing it down until you identify the culprit.
You originally said:
Only the click does not work.
If you put a print string above, does it Print? Because that would mean that the Click does work and we’ve been having this exercise for nothing… In which case you’d need to look at the way you register the dispatchers rather than at how input is processed.
The images are not working.
In a clean project the Buttons are
working.
That’s great. Thanks for testing it out. To clarify: you can observe the hover behaviour (button reacts to cursor moving over) but when you click, nothing happens, right?
And you’ve removed the interaction component?
Could you show the hierarchy of the widget?
no the hover behaviour dosnt work, because the “Widget Interaction component” is deleted.
Without “Widget Interaction componen” i dont get the hover behaviour.
