Thank you so much! I'd been trying to figure this out for hours before your video dropped!

5:52 the On Focused event doesn’t show up for me in my widget blueprint, is jt because I’m using a regular button and not a custom button?

[kellowattentertainment]

what about using common UI? for further controller support in widgets?

Thank you Ryan, appreciate the video.
For Anyone trying to get the gamepad controller to focus on the button in widget (when you first open it), add a 0.2 seconds delay in event construct before setting the set keyboard focus, worked for me, cheers.

I have no idea why the focus doesn't stay when I click the mouse into space. I did everything exactly like that but the focus doesn't stay, it goes away after a mouse click. I have the problem in UE4.27, does anyone have an idea?

[DEMGOD]

Would you suggest this over common UI?

[Marcus]

I have a problem when following this tutorial: when you boot the level, the first button does not respond to the controller command. For example: my first button is "New Game", so the expected user experience is that you immediately press the gamepad button A to trigger it. However, that does not work.
I first have to move at least by one button and then it will work. In your example: to make "Play Game" work, I need to move to "Load Game" first and then go back to "Play Game", then pressing the button with the pad works. Are you encountering the same issue?

[FF-FAN]

Can you do one about game pad for common UI as well?

good luck trying to gamepad press the button that the mouse is hovered though. bad implementation

[DEMGOD]

bit strange you are using a Fortnight thumbnail when fortnight them self don't using any logic you have showed off. they used the Common UI plugin & its common UI widgets
