Blocker - HUD message devices no longer support custom widgets

[Wertandrew]

Since last update, you cant set a custom widget to display on a hud message device, blocking 1/3 of all the custom UI capabilities in UEFN.

Hey this is broken for me too but I found a workaround through @Dudiing . Select the widget you want to use in your Content Browser, then in your HUD Messenger’s Details Panel click the arrow in a circle icon to the right of the HUD Widget input window in order to “Use Selected Asset from Content Browser.” It works for me!

Inability to Select Custom Blueprint Widget for hud_message_device and popup_dialog_device

Since the last update you can’t select a custom blueprint widget to the hud_message_device and popup_dialog_device, only 5 defaults by epic appear. [image] You can add it if you have the widget selected and you give this option it is added directly, but it’s still a bit annoying [image]

Thanks so much Dudiing!

@Mist_JawaYT also reported this, so I’m upvoting all of these posts in the hopes it gets more attention.

Hud Device not letting me choose a widget i have made

i cant change the HUD device widget since the last update it gives me options for UEFN buttons but not any of the the widgets i have made i’m guessing this is a bug because i cant find anywhere else to apply a widget to a HUD device. [Screenshot (2501)]
