🪟 Widget3D

The Widget3D class is the 3D representation of a Widget class spawned in the world.

Client Only🧑‍💻API Source

👪Inheritance

This class shares methods and events from Base Entity, Base Actor.

---

The Widget3D is the 3D representation of a Widget in the world! As it is an Actor, you have all the flexibility of it's methods!

🎒 Examples

Spawning a Widget3D from a Widget

Client/Index.lua

-- Spawns a Widget
local my_text = Widget(NativeWidget.Text)
my_text:CallBlueprintEvent("SetText", "Hello World!")

-- Spawns the Widget3D directly from a Widget
local my_widget_3d = my_text:SpawnWidget3D()

🛠 Constructors

You can only spawn Widget3D through Widget:SpawnWidget3D() method.
