I noticed this 1 time and i showed border then unshowed and it worked ?

Hi Ash :hugs: ,

the text stay invisible in editor also when I show/unshow border :man_tipping_hand:

Are you talking abit while its just in the editor or do you mean in a game when your setting text ? just trying to understand. Maybe a video showing the issue would help.

the text is only invisible in UEFN-editor - in game test the text is shown correctly

same with creator device btw. :face_with_peeking_eye:

So devices dnt show either or are you talking about only the billboard ?

If possible show a video as i feel this is more a setting you have clicked by mistake. Ive only ever known the text not show 1 time when i was setting up a leaderboard and the billboard was in the mesh a little bit hence using the show border.

billboard device: the text which the device should show in the world is not shown in my editor, but i can see the text when i test my map (a few weeks ago i could see the text also in editor)

creator profile device: the preview screen of the device is since a few weeks no longer shown in the editor

Hi all,

I ran into this recently. I had real-time viewport rendering disabled. When I re-enabled real-time rendering my text appeared. Let us know if that was the problem!

Thanks @Astrotronic, that was the cause of my sight problems (also NPC-Spawner-preview btw.) - however the text from the billboard device was not visible imediatelly… But after switch the boarder on and off (like @AtAshTag told me) i can see now this texts also :smiley:

Probably i accidentally switched off the real-time rending a few weeks ago :face_with_peeking_eye:

Thanks both of you for help :folded_hands:
