Hello, I want to make a text box in which the player can write 1 word. I’ve been looking everywhere, but can’t seem to find anything like that. If you know or have seen page/video on how to do it, would be great.
Thank you for your help.
Bump, please
You can create an UMG with a “Tex Box” widget inside it: Widget Type Reference | Unreal Engine Documentation
SET Input Mode must be:
- “UI Only” [Set Input Mode UI Only | Unreal Engine Documentation]
or - “Game and UI” [Set Input Mode Game And UI | Unreal Engine Documentation]
I need help setting up the blueprint behind that widget. I know how widgets work, should’ve made that clear
Bump again!
Hey ShadowTony. Sadly I need to tell you, that bumping a thread is only allowed after a delay of 4 days.
Otherwise you make it harder for other users to get their questions answered.
Sorry about that, didn’t know! Will be careful in the future
Need to know what the text box’s purpose is so we can better understand what you’re trying to achieve
The narrator says : “Write a name for your character” and the box shows up. What you write inside doesn’t matter, as the name is always the same, kind of a troll thing.
- Create a Use Interface -> Widget Blueprint (also known as UMG)
- Add a text box to the center of the layout; set the “center flower” to be in the center of the box for proper screen-relative positioning
- When the time comes, use the “Create Widget” blueprint node to create one, and “Attach to Viewport” node to actually show it
Thank you a lot, sorry for the stupid question, should of knew that…
