Passing a value from a dynamically created widget BP to another widget BP

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

Hello - this is my first post here, so please forgive me if I get the formatting wrong. I’ve tried searching in as many places as I can find on this topic, but I don’t seem to be getting anywhere - I feel like I’m missing something obvious, which is extremely frustrating.

Here’s a quick breakdown of what I’m trying to do:

I’ve followed Rama’s tutorial here for doing the basics of what I’m trying to accomplish. However, I can’t seem to figure out how to set a variable in my “CharacterSheet” BP from my dynamically created widget BP.

Here are a few images that show my Character Sheet BP:
The primary function that begins the widget creation

Here’s the second function the screenshot above references:

And finally the screenshot of my button clicked action in the SelectableSkills widget BP that was instanced dynamically.

I would really appreciate if someone could shed some light on this!

Thank you in advance!

Read my post, the same applies here. Just go one deeper with dispatchers.

Thank you for the assistance, Aesais. I have no idea what I just did, but now I’m able to get the value on the level BP. I have a feeling I need to spend a LOT more time with dispatchers to truly understand what the heck you did.

Is there a reason I have to go all the way back up to the level BP? It looks like if I just stop at the point where you add the event “Button was clicked”, which is my GUI BP, I can get the value from that event. Is that what you meant by “go one deeper”?

Answered my own question experimenting. I stopped creating dispatchers at the main GUI BP (CharacterSheet), and created an event there that delegated to the binding for “Clicked”. In addition, I added the “Int” property to the Call, which gave me the int output on the event. Wahoo! Thanks again, Aesais!

Yea, that example I posted was to get to the level BP, but the same concept works from going from UI to UI (Considering a parent-child relationship). Glad I could help =)
