4.7.5 - UMG - It's not possible to create a Timeline node inside a UMG Widget Event Graph

Onoa · April 14, 2015, 6:03am

Hi,

Inside a UMG widget in the Blueprint Event graph , it’s not possible to create a Timeline node (but Delay is fine, also latent).

Why?

Is it by design or just an omission / a bug?

Thanks,

i think is not a bug, timeline not include in UMG

It isn’t a bug. Timelines are not a part of UMG because widgets works a bit differently.

But if you want to make timeline-like animation, create a Custom Event and call it from other BP that has ability to use timelines.

How do you get the Note Widget Node in another blueprint?

I made custom event inside my target widget. In the blueprint, where I create my widget, I promote my variable for widget reference (output of Create Widget node) and then pull the wire from it and search for my custom event I made before.
