For those coming here from google search, I documented my workaround here:

How To: Gamepad Cursor "Mouse Click" VS UMG Buttons - No plugin, CommonUI or C++

For those who have an existing project since UE4, here’s a tacky hack. If you are starting a new project, Ignore this and maybe go for CommonUI. I’ve been pulling my hair for a solution that allows the following: Using the gamepad as a cursor (easy enough, it’s well documented) - BUT clicking UMG Buttons is also possible, without focus on the buttons themselves.

I thought that’s all you wanted

FAB is such a great improvement, you can’t even ask questions on products anymore let alone read user reviews.

So I’d have to ask you: Are you able to click / drag Sliders and Scrollbox bars widgets? The plugin isn’t exactly cheap ($41.40 Canadian at checkout) so I’d rather be sure before getting it.

I actually used it for a very simple game that didn’t have those features.
But the FAB page already says you can’t do drag and drop, so it doesn’t seem like it fits your needs.
