IEditorModeFactory | Unreal Engine 5.7 Documentation

Class responsible for maintaining a list of registered editor mode types.

Example usage:

Register your mode type with: FEditorModeRegistry::Get().RegisterMode( FName( TEXT("MyEditorMode") ) ); or: class FMyEditorModeFactory : public IEditorModeFactory { virtual void OnSelectionChanged( FEditorModeTools& Tools, UObject* ItemUndergoingChange ) const override; virtual FEditorModeInfoGetModeInfo() const override; virtual TSharedRef CreateMode() const override; }; TSharedRef Factory = MakeShareable( new FMyEditorModeFactory ); FEditorModeRegistry::Get().RegisterMode( FName( TEXT("MyEditorMode") ), Factory );

Unregister your mode when it is no longer available like so (this will prompt the destruction of any existing modes of this type): FEditorModeRegistry::Get().UnregisterMode( FName( TEXT("MyEditorMode") ) );
