class UGoogleVRPointerInputComponent : public UActorComponent

Remarks

GoogleVRPointerInputComponent is used to interact with Actors and Widgets by using a 3D pointer. The pointer can be a cardboard reticle, or a daydream controller.

Variables

	Name	Description
float	FarClippingDistance	The maximum distance an object can be from the start of the pointer for the pointer to hit it.
FHitResult	LatestHitResult
float	NearClippingDistance	The minimum distance an object needs to be from the camera for the pointer to hit it.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerClickActorEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer is clicked.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerClickComponentEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer is clicked.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerEnterActorEvent	Event that occurs when the pointer enters an actor.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerEnterComponentEvent	Event that occurs when the pointer enters a component.
FGoogleVRInputE...	OnPointerExitActorEvent	Event that occurs when the pointer exits an actor.
FGoogleVRInputE...	OnPointerExitComponentEvent	Event that occurs when the pointer exits a component.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerHoverActorEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer is hovering over an actor.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerHoverComponentEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer is hovering over a component.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerPressedEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer initiates a click.
FGoogleVRInputD...	OnPointerReleasedEvent	Event that occurs once when the pointer ends a click.
TScriptInterfac...	Pointer
bool	UseControllerClick	Determines if pointer clicks will occur from controller clicks.
bool	UseTouchClick	Determines if pointer clicks will occur from touching the screen.
UGoogleVRWidget...	WidgetInteraction	WidgetInteractionComponent used to integrate pointer input with UMG widgets.

Overridden from UActorComponent

	Name	Description
void	BeginPlay()	Begins Play for the component.
void	OnRegister()	Called when a component is registered, after Scene is set, but before CreateRenderState_Concurrent or OnCreatePhysicsState are called.
void	TickComponent ( float DeltaTime, ELevelTick TickType, FActorComponentTickFunction* T... )	Function called every frame on this ActorComponent.
