UWidgetComponent is blind to mouse on client in PIE

Development Programming & Scripting
1

Hey All,

The UWidgetComponent doesn’t capture the mouse when playing in editor on a client.

It works in packaged game on both server and clients, but in the editor it works only on server.

I made a short video to show this:

For me it's more annoying than it sounds because i can't test my 3D UI in my networking game without packaging.

I’m not sure i’m using the UMG library correctly, but i still post in the bug section because there is a different behavior in the packaged game and when PIE.

Thanks !

Cedric
