Everytime i add a textblock, i can’t change the text in them. it just doesn’t work at all. When i try to change the text in the textblock it doesn’t change. and when i add 2 textblocks and change the text to the first textbblock i added, the second one changes to the same text i set to the first text block.

For example, if i was to change the text in textblock 1 to “Hi everybody” text block 2 would also change to “Hi everybody” and it’s very annoying. I WOULD APPRECIATE IF EPIC COULD REPLY BACK AND TELL ME A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM!

Hey,

This is a known issue: UMG - Text blocks loosing text when i compile. - UI - Epic Developer Community Forums

It’s caused by every text block FText instance being given the same LOCTEXT key. You can either take the fix from that change if you’re building from source, or you can just click the drop-down next to the text property and generate a new key for each text block.

Thanks,
Jamie.
