[BUG] 4.7.1 - The default value for a Linear Color parameter inside a Blueprint function parameter is a text field instead of a color picker and RGBA floats

The default value for a Linear Color parameter inside a Blueprint function parameter is a text field instead of a color picker and RGBA floats

It should display the color picker and allow to enter RGBA values manually.

Hello 6r0m,

I was unable to reproduce this issue on our end. What version of the engine are you using when this issue occurs?

hello rudy,
for example in 4.14.3 that issue is still present.
if u pick a linear color as input eg in an event or function, there is no colorpicker to set a default value. instead there is just a box that will accept text. i tried to put the HexLinear or HexsRGB as a value in there but it does not accept these either.

hope that helps to narrow down the issue.

Hello Nuruti,

I tested this issue again in 4.14.3 and it appears that you are correct. This issue has returned. I have reopened the issue. Thank you for your time and information.

Make it a great day

For anyone wondering how to type in value in field presented in such a way, I figured an answer after a bit of testing.
You need to type in it as following:
(r=0.0,g=0.0,b=0.0,a=0.0)

Works in 4.14 for me.

Awesome! This works, thanks!!!

Nonetheless, it should be changed to a color picker.

Still present in 4.16.1:
