Blueprint Editor: Comments with line wrap cannot be edited

Hi there,

if a comment goes over more than a line, it’s not possible to edit the part which goes over the limit of the first line:


The text does not scroll over the limit either so you have to edit the text blindly.

Hey ,

Thanks for noticing this issue with the comment box in the Blueprint Editor. I have submitted a bug to our developers. If you’d like to check on this report in the future, please refer to: UE-17734.

If you have any further questions regarding this bug, please feel free to ask. For all other questions, please submit a new question to AnswerHub.

Thank you and have a wonderful day!

This is really annoying me also, I’m trying to make some detailed comments on what I’m doing, and I have to use an external notepad file to see what I’m typing.

The extra comment bubbles when you zoom out are also a bother, I wish I could turn them off some how.
Maybe the comments could have two parts, a title, and an extended description with an optional pop up for long descriptions.

It would be cool if I could put some shortcuts in the comments also, so I could snap quickly to a related section. You can do it with the search box, but a quick link would be better.

+1 for wishing I could turn off the comment’s bubbles. Particularly in the material editor.

Hey Spryo and Griffork,

Thanks for your suggestions, I have entered a feature request for these ideas. If you have any questions regarding the feature request or you’d like to see the progress please reference: UE-19408.

Thank you and have a nice day!

Where/how do I find UE-19408?

is not public facing. I have checked on UE-19408 though and it’s still an unresolved issue. Please feel free to check back in a few weeks for an update.

Thank you!
