Tutorial: The Unreal Engine Data Charts Plugin

Everybody loves a chart :), but it isn’t immediately obvious for end users how to include a chart in a vanilla Unreal Engine project. This has recently become a common question I’ve received from end users, particularly those developing Digital Twins in Unreal Engine. The quick answer is the Data Charts Plugin. It is a Beta plugin available in Unreal Engine that includes a few default chart types that can quickly be added to your scenes. This tutorial is aimed towards beginners of Unreal Engine, guiding users on the basic usage of the Data Charts plugin.

hi Simon, thank you for the tutorial

are there customization options for:

  • text displayed above the bar charts (beyond/in addition to the float value associated with that bar)
  • decals/textures used on the faces of the line chart nodes

would these customizations be achievable within the Blueprint Event Graph/construction script/functions?

thank you.
