I’m finding when I show a disabled button, there seems to be some override where the text on the button gets shaded no matter what color I set the colors to. Does anyone know a way I can have more control over this?
There is a option to achieve this.
You would create a Overlay and add a Button to it with Horizontal & Vertical Alignment to “Fill”:
After that you also add a Text to the Overlay and set its Horizontal & Vertical Alignment to “Center”, also add a padding to give the button more space to “breath” on the left & right side, as well as at the top & bottom. (These are values used as an example).
Now your Layout for a Button should look something like this:
When you now disable the button:
The text is still in it’s original color, but the button is disabled.
Don’t forget to set the Visibility of the Text to “Not Hit-Testable (Self only)” or “Not Hit-Testable (Self & All Children)”. If you forget that, you will wonder why the button is not clickable.
Hope that sums everything up & helps, if you still got a question don’t hesitate to ask!
Have a great day!

It all certainly shouldn’t be like this. It is some conceptual flaw of Unreal Engine devs, i spent like an hour today, went through entire hierarchy of my widget multiple times, simply not able to find where is the source of that bloody greyish tint.
Thank you @Hibiikiii for simple(st) solution.
