UButton::SetTouchMethod
#include "Components/Button.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: UFUNCTIONBlueprintCallable
Description
Sets which touch interaction pattern triggers the button's OnClicked event on touch-input platforms.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • PreciseTap matters when the button lives inside a scrollable list — it prevents a swipe-to-scroll gesture from being misread as a tap on the button underneath the finger.
- • Only affects touch input; mouse and keyboard/gamepad triggering are controlled separately by SetClickMethod and SetPressMethod.
