Tooltips won't work in standalone build

Hi!

I’m using default tooltips for elements of my UserWidget. And it works fine while I’m in editor. But when I’m building a standalone distribution copy through frontend, tooltips won’t works at all.

UPD: more details were just investigated - no tooltips in fullscreen standalone build. In windowed mode it’s ok.

Is that just a problem of mine?

Any solutions?

Hello LimFOx,

As stated above, this issue has been resolved. However, if you are looking for a workaround you could try creating custom tool tips using UMG.

Example:

Here I made a widget that will be my custom tooltip. I set the overlay to “Size to content” and the the image to fill for the overlay.

I then place that widget inside of a widget called “Holder”. In this example I have the widget constantly counting up so that it changes size as well as tracking the mouse.

This is my user widget that was created in the first image. I have set it to “Size to content” as well.

I hope that this helps.

Make it a great day
