UINavigation

UINavigation is a UE4 plugin that allows you to easily setup Navigation within UMG that works with Mouse, Keyboard, Gamepad, or any combination of those. It's designed to be hands-off, flexible and extendable. It features:

• 4 Navigation options (used in 99% of video game menus) that you can use simultaneously, including:
  • Changing text color of currently selected option
  • Changing the location of a selector (2D image that indicates which option is currently selected)
  • Changing button states
  • Applying animations (i.e. text size, text offset, etc.)
• Navigation chaining (when holding down a button)
• A functional graphics options menu
• Standard menu examples
• A thorough documentation blueprint
