  • accessible_behavior (SlateAccessibleBehavior): [Read-Write] Accessible Behavior: Whether or not the widget is accessible, and how to describe it. If set to custom, additional customization options will appear.

  • accessible_summary_behavior (SlateAccessibleBehavior): [Read-Write] Accessible Summary Behavior: How to describe this widget when it’s being presented through a summary of a parent widget. If set to custom, additional customization options will appear.

  • accessible_summary_text (Text): [Read-Write] Accessible Summary Text: When AccessibleSummaryBehavior is set to Custom, this is the text that will be used to describe the widget.

  • accessible_text (Text): [Read-Write] Accessible Text: When AccessibleBehavior is set to Custom, this is the text that will be used to describe the widget.

  • auto_collapse_with_empty_text (bool): [Read-Write] Auto Collapse with Empty Text: True to automatically collapse this text block when set to display an empty string. Conversely, will be SelfHitTestInvisible when showing a non-empty string.

  • auto_wrap_text (bool): [Read-Write] Auto Wrap Text: True if we’re wrapping text automatically based on the computed horizontal space for this widget.

  • auto_wrap_text (bool): [Read-Write] Auto Wrap Text: Whether the text should automatically wrap deprecated: bAutoWrapText is deprecated. Please use AutoWrapText instead.

  • can_children_be_accessible (bool): [Read-Write] Can Children be Accessible: Whether or not children of this widget can appear as distinct accessible widgets.

  • clipping (WidgetClipping): [Read-Write] Clipping: Controls how the clipping behavior of this widget. Normally content that overflows the bounds of the widget continues rendering. Enabling clipping prevents that overflowing content from being seen.

    NOTE: Elements in different clipping spaces can not be batched together, and so there is a performance cost to clipping. Do not enable clipping unless a panel actually needs to prevent content from showing up outside its bounds.

  • color_and_opacity (SlateColor): [Read-Write] Color and Opacity: The color of the text

  • cursor (MouseCursor): [Read-Write] Cursor: The cursor to show when the mouse is over the widget

  • display_all_caps (bool): [Read-Write] Display All Caps: True to always display text in ALL CAPS deprecated: bDisplayAllCaps is deprecated. Please use TextTransformPolicy instead.

  • flow_direction_preference (FlowDirectionPreference): [Read-Write] Flow Direction Preference: Allows you to set a new flow direction

  • font (SlateFontInfo): [Read-Write] Font: The font to render the text with

  • is_enabled (bool): [Read-Write] Is Enabled: Sets whether this widget can be modified interactively by the user

  • is_volatile (bool): [Read-Write] Is Volatile: If true prevents the widget or its child’s geometry or layout information from being cached. If this widget changes every frame, but you want it to still be in an invalidation panel you should make it as volatile instead of invalidating it every frame, which would prevent the invalidation panel from actually ever caching anything.

  • justification (TextJustify): [Read-Write] Justification: How the text should be aligned with the margin.

  • line_height_percentage (float): [Read-Write] Line Height Percentage: The amount to scale each lines height by.

  • margin (Margin): [Read-Write] Margin: The amount of blank space left around the edges of text area.

  • min_desired_width (float): [Read-Write] Min Desired Width: The minimum desired size for the text

  • mobile_font_size_multiplier (float): [Read-Write] Mobile Font Size Multiplier: Mobile font size multiplier. Activated by default on mobile. See CVar Mobile_PreviewFontSize

  • simple_text_mode (bool): [Read-Write] Simple Text Mode: If this is enabled, text shaping, wrapping, justification are disabled in favor of much faster text layout and measurement. This feature is only suitable for “simple” text (ie, text containing only numbers or basic ASCII) as it disables the complex text rendering support required for certain languages (such as Arabic and Thai). It is significantly faster for text that can take advantage of it (particularly if that text changes frequently), but shouldn’t be used for localized user-facing text.
