Blueprint Dialogue System

As for the font, **UMG **doesn’t (as far as I know), support changing the font, font size, or font weight at runtime, so this can’t be directly supported. I can think of a way to do it, but it’s a clumsy task (and not cleanly supported in the current version of the BDS): Create a new UI_DialogueTextItem for **each **font settings you’d like to support and add new options in the inline parser to swap out the text item it spawns.

I’ve been meaning to get around to doing this. I’m not actually sure how to go about it, though? I’ve created a new UI for the text item like you said, and I went ahead and made a whole new UI_Dialogue that uses said text item too, just in case. I don’t know how to call upon these, however.

Looking at BPC_Dialogue (and the children I’ve made), it looks like I just need to swap out the UI there through a Cast To node or a Blueprint Interface, but the option isn’t available to me.

(That one.)

The variable will only accept the UI_Dialogue class, but I’d like to broaden its horizons, so to speak, so it can also accept the custom UI I made. I could be going about this rather poorly. What do you suggest?

Thanks for your time.
