How to set widget / panel size?

I’m working with a Widget that has Canvas Panel in it. It has some size as seen in the background watermark:

Where can I change the size? I don’t see it in the widget properties, canvas properties or class defaults. I’m not asking about changing it via Blueprint but the default size it has…

It’s not widget size per se. It’s a preview of how a widget would behave / look like on a screen of this size. It’s here for you to know what you’re working with. You’re designing on a PC but the target platform may (and often will) utilise various dimensions.

You can change it here:

Or even go custom (fill screen dropdown) - super useful for visualising sub-widgets accurately if they need to be of specific size. One can quickly iterate and eyeball how the final layout is affected.


If you do not specifically tell a widget to be of xy size, it will be full screen once added to the viewport - regardless of the screen resolution.

This seemingly 1024x576 widget fills my entire screen even though my monitor sports much higher resolution. This can be overridden in many ways, ofc.
