Pixel streaming "Level Editor" doesn't stream any widgets during PIE on the viewport


If we stream with option “Level Editor” (as you can see on the second screenshot) there will be no widgets in the viewport. I tried with Lyra Framework, but even adding a simple UMG widget will have the same result. No widgets on the streaming viewport. Is there a possibility to stream viewport with UMG widgets included? “Full Editor” streaming option is working great, the same with packaged game.

Hi there Enexim!

So the reason this happens is due to both full editor streaming and packaged projects capturing the back buffer, who’s call is the very last step so everything is rendered properly.
The level editor does does not capture the back buffer and instead relies on a different call which won’t have widgets.

Unfortunately there isn’t a way around this at this stage, but may hopefully be looked into in future.

Let me know if you had any further questions!
