SnapUI - Dial Snapplet

SnapUI is a partial 'cut & paste' GUI solution for Unreal Engine 4 comprising of interactive graphical components called 'snapplets'. A Snapplet is a 'snappable applet' (e.g. Dial) that you can position and align during play for easy layout design. SnapUI is developed for the Windows 7 platform and utilities standard mouse and keyboard input. Snapplets are ideal for providing interactive options for architectural and debugging purposes.

1. After Creating the SnappletDial template project download:

SnapUI_InputMapping.ini & SnapUI_InputMapping.READ.ME.FIRST.ini and place the files into the SnappletDial\Config\ folder. (SnapUI_InputMapping.READ.ME.FIRST.ini contains a note regarding existing action mappings).

2. Open SnappletDial in UE4

3. Go to Edit->Project Settings:Input and import Snapplet_Dial\Config\SnapUI_InputMapping.ini.

4. Press play to confirm the template project runs as expected (the first dial should change the GlobeThing object's material.

You are now ready to add snapplets to your own projects. Visit www.3si.co.uk/snapui.html and watch the 'Dial Snapplet' tutorial.

Note-1:
The video tutorials refer to a project folder called 'Snapplet_Dial'. Snapplet_Dial is the same project as the one you have just created, i.e. SnappletDial. (The underscore has been removed).

Note-2:
The video tutorials refer to a folder in the Content Browser called \Game\SnapUI. In your template project the folder has been moved to \Game\SnappletDial\SnapUI.
