Syntax

class UInteractiveToolBuilder : public UObject

Remarks

A UInteractiveToolBuilder creates a new instance of an InteractiveTool (basically this is a Factory). These are registered with the InteractiveToolManager, which calls BuildTool() if CanBuildTool() returns true. In addition CanBuildTool() will be queried to (for example) enable/disable UI buttons, etc. This is an abstract base class, you must subclass it in order to create your particular Tool instance
