Details window in blueprint editor disappeared for some components

anonymous_user_00237753 · April 30, 2015, 8:35pm

After using ctrl+z rapidly multiple times and switching to an other blueprint i noticed some of the components don’t show details when clicked on.

Clicking on mesh component

Clicking on sprite component

Hey ,

I have not been able to reproduce this issue today. When you use ctrl+z multiple times and switch between blueprints, do the detail panels ever reappear on these components? Do you need to compile and save for them to reappear, or do you need to save all and close the project and reopen it?

Please provide me some additional details so that I can further investigate the issue you’re experiencing.

Thank you!

They do not reappear neither after switching the blueprints nor even restarting the project,even duplicating the blueprint makes the new blueprint have this issue as well.All the settings inside the tabs have remained inact,but i can’t change them.

Sorry for not responding sooner,but i have not realized i have gotten a response.

Hey ,

Which version of the Engine are you working within? Are you able to upload a project that this is happening in, perhaps a blank template where you’ve reproduced this?

Looking forward to hearing from you, thanks!

I had this problem as well.
After pressing ctrl + z rapidly every component its details window went blank.
I fixed it by pressing the add component button and just adding a random component.
This made all the details windows show everything again.
And then I just deleted the random component as I didn’t need it.
And the details windows still worked.
Apparently this also happens when you have an error in your blueprint and you run the game.
The details windows are blank again.
The above mentioned “fix” doesn’t work now.

Hey ,

Are you currently able to reproduce this in UE4 4.8.0?
