I’m working on a feature where when the mouse hovers over a specific actor within a widget area, an interactive hint is displayed. Now I have a question about showing this interactive hint icon: if I update the position of the interactive hint image widget every tickaggio to follow the mouse, there is a noticeable lag. How can I achieve the lag‑free effect shown in the second video? Or is my approach fundamentally wrong and should not be done this way? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Change the software cursor(example:)
From your item bp, add a box collision and add those event:
2nd method - WidgetComponent with Tooltip
The 2nd method will require to create a widget bp with a custom tooltip but this is more expensive to run and triggering it is kinda slow as shown below:
