I my game, I used the key “F9” for stopping the game.
I already change the setting in “Keyboard Shortcut” and remove the shortcut key for screenshot.
But after I packaged the project, the function for shortcut screenshot “F9” is still working.
Each time I pressed “F9” to stop the game, an image is also captured.
How can I solve this problem?
… misunderstood at first.
Setting the Packaging option for Distribution should shut out console/debugging keys.
(It does on my unaltered engine build at any rate)
Thank you for your answer.
It solved my problem.
I am just a beginner in Unreal Engine. May I ask when should I check the “For Distribution” checkbox? Except shut out console/debugging keys, it there any different after I check the “For Distribution” checkbox?
Deployment closes out the console to the users and leaves out some other debugging tools in the compile.
It is what you want to use when you are releasing the game to your users - rather than testers.
Hey, I am here to know how to change computer shortcut keys. My keys are default as windows provide but i want to change some shortcut keys. Will you please help me out to change keys?
That’s the first line in google by request “disable f9 screenshoting”, so i’ll add extra solution here:
F9 screenshot is a debug binding that seems to be disabled in shipping builds; Nevertheless, there are cases where it need to be disabled in editor\development build and it’s not even in editor’s settings.
So: initially binding is defined in /engine/config/baseinput.ini, so to disable it we may edit project’s /config/defaultinput.ini to completely remove it for our project:
[/Script/Engine.PlayerInput]
-DebugExecBindings=(Key=F9,Command="shot showui")
In case you need to rebind it, you may write it in a following way:
[/Script/Engine.PlayerInput]
-DebugExecBindings=(Key=F9,Command="shot showui")
+DebugExecBindings=(Key=F10,Command="shot showui")
this way it’ll be rebinded from f9 to f10
