Modal Dialog Variant with Popup Dialog Device Failing to Validate

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?

Devices

Summary

I created a Modal Dialog Variant which is to be used in a Popup Dialog Device (following the official Epic Games tutorial here: UI Widget Editor)

The Widget Blueprint compiles successfully, but when I go to launch a session I get dozens of errors saying that the Widget is “illegally referencing assets…”

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a widget blueprint of type Modal Dialog Variant and add a regular button.
  2. Compile the widget blueprint.
  3. Drag a Popup Dialog Device into the scene.
  4. Change Popup Dialog Device to use custom template and select the widget blueprint that was just created.
  5. Launch Session

Expected Result

I would expect the game to launch.

Observed Result

Game fails to launch due to dozens of validation errors.

Same issue here. This used to work without any problems. Any workarounds while this doesn’t get fixed?

The status of UCB-1124 incident has been moved from ‘Needs Triage’ to ‘Closed’. Resolution Reason: ‘Fixed’

Thank you! :pray:

Same!!! i can get the compiler happy but can’t launch sesh.
“illegal reference” why give us yet something else we cannot use?

Wow you are a life saver, thank you for finding the solution to this. I think I must have overlooked the part where it nulls out the button field when you start editing the bindings. Because I just followed your tutorial exactly on my end and it worked.

Thank you my friend!
