Was working nice with 4.7.\* but now my construction scripts doesn’t update the sprite value of sprite component.  
So when I change an editable property in the editor that should change the sprite via construction script it doesn’t work.

That because I was using its Mobility as Static for this PaperSprite component.

In other similar blueprint classes that I have with Mobility set to Movable everything works fine.

The solution could be change all to Movable but this affect all my 12 game levels making a mess that I have to fix every actor since all of them lose its default value set by me in the level editor… ☹

Hey piXelicidio,

Would you mind providing me with some reproducible steps/images so I can test this issue on my end?

Yes, I have already answered with screenshots and more details here to Eric Ketchum: [Makes any difference Movable or Static property for Paper2D sprites? - Rendering - Unreal Engine Forums](https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/146916/makes-any-difference-movable-or-static-property-fo.html)

He created a bug report UE-17523
