Creating Drag and drop of material in shipping

Development Rendering

Hi,

We would like to create a drag and drop feature in our software. We currently tested physic version (launching ray and check which mesh component is hit), but as we are using generated meshes at runtime we can not rely on a good physic hull for our objects.

The UE4 editor seem to to support drag and drop of material on static meshes, and is able to find which material ID have been pointed. I guess this is not using physic. Do someone know what is the technic behind.
(I start searching into the source code, but any help to find or understand this would be appreciated).

Regards

Hi . You posted this in the legal and licensing section of the AnswerHub, but it would be more appropriate in the “Using UE4” section. I’ve moved it there for you.

Thanks Dudley. In fact I stopped the post when I noticed the section was badly filled but look like the post was already sent. I reposted then at “everything else”, sorry for double message.
