Can't get identical rotation as parent actor

And there’s no difference between picking “absolute rotation” or “relative rotation” in the editor in the transform section

So most likely you saw this post too:

Making widget component stay above rotating actor? - #8 by Everynone

I’m a bit lost myself now, can’t think of any reason why the component would not follow a component it is attached to. You should comment the PostEditMove override to at least not modify things during an editor event, then put breakpoints within

WidgetComponent->SetupAttachment(MeshComponent);

to see if attachment is done properly.

If you don’t see anything obvious temporarily replace the widget component with a mesh in the constructor and see if that behaves properly. If so, the problem lies within the widget component.
