Hi, I’ve created a Main Menu that works perfectly when I press Play in the editor. However, after packaging the project, I execute the game and I can’t click anywhere on the Main Menu, so I can’t start the game. When I just had my level (without main menu), I could use both keyboard and mouse, now with the main level I can’t click on Play to play . The keyboard doesn’t work either on that Main Menu. I’m not sure if there’s something I haven’t configured properly to make the mouse work correctly when launching the executable game.
Hello @Unediense , how is it going? maybe the red boxes are not buttons and you have not added functionality to them? if so, I leave you a video on how to create a functional menu and If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

Hi, thanks a lot, I was going to follow that video but finally I followed this
I prefer the one you say, because of the background and it’s more detailed as I see right now.
In fact my blueprint is incomplete with the video I have watched
I have done all the steps and as you can see, I click on play and everything is ok
I have functionality on Start and End.
Someone told me on reddit: “Are you setting it to switch from game input to UI input and also have you made the mouse visible?”
I’m so beginner that I don’t know how to do that, I’m asking chatgpt and it tells me that I have to do this to show the mouse:
Event BeginPlay
→ Create Widget (tu menú)
→ Add to Viewport
→ Get Player Controller
→ Set Show Mouse Cursor = true
→ Set Input Mode UI Only (o Game and UI) → Target: Player Controller

Nice, it looks good. Yes, that’s what you need to do. In the video I sent you, at minute 7:43, it explains how to do it. It’s inside the main menu widget you created, although it seems to me that you have already done it because you can see the mouse on your menu screen.
