Tooltips are used to convey a hint or extra information upon closer inspection of an object. They can be used to annotate objects in the physical environment.
There is an AUxtTooltipActor can be dragged and dropped in the scene to instantiate a tooltip.
Once instantiated, the tooltip can point to an actor/component by modifying the Tooltip Target property or calling the SetTarget function. It is also possible to change the tooltip content for any blueprint widget by setting the Widget Class property.
The spline tangents can be modified if you want to change the curve.
Property to point at an actor/component. Clearing the component property to none should result in binding the tooltip to the center of the actor. The component name defaults to DefaultSceneRoot.
This property allows the user to set any blueprint widget class so that the tooltip renders it. When cleared, the tooltip will default to some default text.
The anchor is a scene node that is used to offset the end point of the spline going to the target. Start Point is at tooltip location and End Point is at the target's location.
The Margin property that can be used to add space between the text and the border of the back plate.
Having too many tooltips can get costly. This is a component for a tooltip that can be spawned dynamically based on preset events.
