What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

UI/Tools

Summary

After pressing something in my keyboard, the gizmo disappeared and I cant make it come back after pressing G. Not sure what else can make it go away and not come back. Show transform gizmo option doesn’t affect its visibility either.

Steps to Reproduce

Press all keys on the keyboard, one is bound to cause the issue (gizmo not showing). We also found that pressing many times or holding Esc causes it.

Expected Result

Gizmo only disappears if you press G and appears if you select something after that

Observed Result

Some keybind causes the gizmo to disappear and not come back regardless if you press G or not.

Platform(s)

PC

I was told of a fix for this, its to delete your UEFN folder within %Appdata. That fixed it for me.

I had this issue exactly like you described, Pressed something and lost the gizmo. Restarted UEFN and PC no luck, tried to delete the appropriate %appdata% folder no luck. Finally under show to the left of Time Of Day, there was an option (I think show default?) I toggled and it was back.
