[SOLVED] How do I set the input text color of a text box in a user widget?

Development Programming & Scripting UI

Sorry this question is so simple that I would think that I could figure this out on my own but unfortunately Unreal is still not as user friendly as other engines out there.

Do you guys know how to set the input text color of a text box in a user widget?
I can set the foreground color but it will only apply after I lose focus of the textbox. The text color while typing is always grey for me, no matter which setting I choose.

Help is much appreciated!

Cheers

You’ll want to change foreground color for not-focused and focused foreground color for when focused.

@rokenrock You are my hero! :slight_smile:

The problem was that the inherit checkbox was ticked and that’s why it wasn’t using the defined color.

Now it works as I would expect it to work!

How can I mark this as resolved? :slight_smile:
