Can you please make the project content icons available in the menu as well?
I’m working on this locally with modifications, but it would be great if you could officially support it.

Hi @Imaginary_Spaces I tried working with the plugin on UE5 and I’m running into an issue. I know it’s not officially supported yet but I was wondering if you could help me out?
Your plugin is really great btw :slight_smile: Thank you

Hi @Imaginary_Spaces , I hope you are well.

Firstly I wanted to say thank you for releasing such a useful tool! I have been using it for several months now and once I got used to the API I have loved every minute of using it! It’s so rewarding having all my blueprints and widgets on tap.

As others have already asked, please could you update the plugin to 4.27 and UE5 once the first release is made official?

Many thanks again,
