The trigger disappears when I'm inside the area.

I placed an area trigger. When I enter the area, the settings icon appears in the top left. I click on the icon and open the settings. After I close the settings, the icon disappears. If I leave the area and re-enter, the icon appears again. I want the trigger to remain active while I’m inside the area, but disappear when I exit. However, since I’m a beginner, I haven’t been able to figure it out. Is there someone who can explain this to me in detail?


  • in the settings widget:

  • when we overlap the trigger:

  • to create a variable, right click the Return Value pin and:

  • to get a Validated Get node, get it first, then right click it and convert:

Not sure I follow this bit, did you mean the widget or the trigger? Assuming you wish to hide the settings widget when leaving the area:

I still haven’t been able to solve it. I’ve been working on it for days, and I’m about to lose my mind from lack of sleep :pensive:

I’ll explain step by step what I did. I can’t see my mistakes. I couldn’t find anything in the sources either.

I added a settings icon inside the opened menu of “BP_LoungeWidget” (“BP_AdjustmentWidget” is independent). When I click on the settings icon, I want the menu to close with an animation and for “BP_AdjustmentWidget” to become active again. However, two issues occur: 1) The icon disappears. To make it active, I need to exit the lounge and re-enter. 2) Even if I exit the area, it never disappears.

Image 7:** Before entering the lounge.
Image 8:** The icon appears when entering the lounge.
Image 9:** When clicking on the settings icon, the menu opens. (It opens without animation)
Image 10:** When clicking on the settings icon, the menu closes. (It closes with animation)
Image 11:** Even if I exit the lounge, the icon doesn’t disappear.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I was only able to upload one image at a time, so I had to send it this way.
