Can't find button OnClick callback event

SeismicSandwich · June 1, 2023, 3:05am

This seems to be a really silly issue, but I am currently unable to get around it. I am trying to make a UI menu widget for my game. I want to have a button, saying “play game” that calls a function that will setup the game. I have already written the function, and I just need to bind it to the button. When I looked up how to do this, many sources online said to just go to the details for the button > Events > OnClicked.

However, it seems that my button object doesn’t have an events section, or onClicked option. Actually, after testing, it seems that no UI objects have an events section. Is there something I have to do first in order to enable UI related events that I don’t realize?

Note: this is on UE 5.2

Had the same problem, you can find the Events now in the Graph when you click on your Button under Variables Tab, then they appear under Details

Thank you so much, I was scratching my head to understand what I was doing wrong…
It was so straightforward for years in UE4 that I fail to see why Epic added this step ?

What if you create a widget that has a button in it, thats all (think of it like a master button for quickly customising style across all buttons)
Then in another widget you use that user created button - except it has no on clicked event… how do i get the on clicked event for it???
