I’m trying to have my game’s pause menu open and close with the Escape key. The former is easy, but the latter is somewhat annoying to implement. Apparently, the same key event that opens the menu immediately also causes it to lose focus, so pressing Escape again won’t close it unless you click one …

Apparently Is Focusable was unchecked in the blueprint options while it was checked in the other menu. It was nothing to do with the Escape key in particular. That said I’ve never messed with that option so I don’t know why it’s different. Thanks to Adnoh’s comment for pointing me to it.

Escape to open menu unfocuses immediately

I have it on UI Only but I’ll check and see about isfocusable.
