Hi,
Was checking features in UI in main editor. But I cannot find out “Compile” button to force editor compile C++ code in backend side. Additionally couldnt see Live Coding feature.
I suggest to put button near Play, Platform buttons in main UI.

The Compile button is on the right side of Statusbar, close to the SourceControl button.
To enable Live Coding, go to Editor Preferences > Live Coding.

I saw it after I open project debugging mode from VS2019, when directly open project from Epic Launcher, that button is not available.
