[4.7.2] Folder Colors don't save

I’m unable to save folder colors in my project. Whenever I set a folder color and restart the editor, the colors are gone. The project was created on 4.7 Preview 7 and is now on 4.7.2. I only started using folder colors on 4.7.2 so I don’t know if it worked before.

Has anyone else run into this issue?

I tried disconnecting from source control, setting colors on newly created folders, etc. Still unable to save any folder colors.

I created a new blank project and could not reproduce the issue, it saves properly, so it seems to be specific to my project.

It’s a content-only project at the moment so I can provide a copy of it if provided with an email address.

Thanks!

Hey JParent,

The folder colors not saving between versions of the Editor is a known issue. We’re currently working on this issue, once it’s resolved it’ll be released in a future update. Unfortunately, I cannot provide an ETA for this feature. If you need to reference this bug in the future, please reference: UE-11092.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to reply back to this thread.

Have a great day!

Good to hear but just to make sure we are talking about the same bug, I am not saying the folder colors were simply cleared once I migrated my project from 4.6 to 4.7.

The colors just never save even if I don’t migrate the project (I created it on 4.7 so it never asked me to convert/migrate it). I’m assuming its the same bug and that it’s caused by having created the project on a version of the editor that is not exactly the same as the one im currently using.

Thank you for clarifying. Do the folder colors save for you when you create a new project with 4.7.2, save and then reopen the project?

Yes they do. They also save in the Multiplayer Shootout example project that I downloaded yesterday.

They just dont save in my project.

Thank you JParent,

I’ll make sure I add this information into the bug listed earlier in this post. It does seem as if it’s any project that’s updated to a newer version. So since your project was created in 4.7 and now you’re in 4.7.2, the issue still remains.

I appreciate all of the information you’ve given, please let us know if you run into any other complications.
Thanks!
