Bug? Access Violation when accessing Widget Pointer

Hi there

I have some problems with an “Access Violation” crash when trying to access a pointer to a widget.

Should I not use pointers to Widgets?

I have read some articles about the same problem when trying to use
MouseOverWidgetRef->IsValidLowLevel(); and that we should first check if the object isn’t a null pointer, what I did.

Could this happen because the function gets called twice in one frame?

Any advice would be very helpfull. Thank you very much!

Error in Line 224:

if (MouseOverWidgetRef != nullptr) {)

**InteractiveItem.h**
class UItemMouseOverWidget* MouseOverWidgetRef = nullptr;

**InteractiveItem.cpp**
if (MouseOverWidgetRef != nullptr) {
	if (MouseOverWidgetRef->IsValidLowLevel()) {
		MouseOverWidgetRef->RemoveFromParent();
		MouseOverWidgetRef = nullptr;
	}
}

alternative InteractiveItem.cpp

if (MouseOverWidgetRef) {
	if (MouseOverWidgetRef->IsValidLowLevel()) {
		MouseOverWidgetRef->RemoveFromParent();
		MouseOverWidgetRef = nullptr;
	}
}

**Log:**
Access violation - code c0000005 (first/second chance not available)
