Desinger Quick Guide
This YouTube Video is a quick guide about the Designer, how it works and in what cases it is meant to be used.Adding a Designer
Designers are created by adding an element to the Designers array. Click (+) to a new array element.Every array element contains the information for a separate designer widget. Use the element index as Feature ID in the Main Menu Layout.
The size of the icons and the widget width can be adjusted. The widget width can't be larger than the max width set in UI Panel Design.

Designer Settings
Designer Header appears at the top of the widget.There are two Target Actor Types
- Variation Actor - UI3 Variation blueprint actor
- External Actor - A blueprint actor not part of UI3

Designer Elements
Every Design Element represents a row in the Designer widget.The Tag name is what links the Target Actor with the Designer Element. Linked Variation Actors need to be set to Link To Designer
Target Actor Overwrite overwrites the Target type set for the Designer
- None (from Designer) - no override
- Variation Actor, Using Choices - The Element uses the Designer Choices array
- Variation Actor, Receiving Details - The Element uses the Variation Details array in the Variation actor

Designer and Layout Scenarios
The kitchen, for example has two variation sub levels with different layout and different costs.The Designer needs to receive the updated Details from the Variation actors in the current layout level to track the cost correctly. Every kitchen layout sub level needs its own set of Variation actors.

Element Choices
Choices are added to the Design Choices array.The index of the choice is sent, and the target actor changes the variation to that ID.
Design Choices in the infomap and Variation Details in the Variation Actor are compatible and can be copied between the two actors.
Current Name and Price appear in front of the Element row.
Create preview icons with an Icon Texture and a tint color. Icons are in UI / Tex / Design
The Price is multiplied by the value set in Unit (amount) .

Designer To Variation Actor Link
Variation Actor and Designer are linked by having the same Tag name.The Variation Actor Type needs to be set to
- Link To Designer

Variation Details = Designer Choices
The Design Choices and the Variation Details arrays use the same structure. The settings can be copied between the Designer and the Variation Actors.

Designer To Blueprint Link
The Designer works well with external blueprints:- Modular Kitchen Builder
- Interactive Doors Blueprint
They can be linked by adding the blueprint interface BPI_UI3_Interaction to their swap actors.
On the Designer side, only the Tag and the Variation Details need to be added. The Target Actor Type is External Actor.
