Highlight objects #UnrealEngine5
How exactly do you do it?

I'm newbie with Unreal Engine 5 and I decided to find info how to make object highlights for interaction. Here are the options I found:

  1. Material (PostProcess), need PostProcessVolume
  2. Create Dynamic Material in BeginPlay, change Parameter(s) in Material
  3. Create Material and use it as Overlay Material, SetOverlayMaterial in Blueprint
  4. Create Material (Deferred Decal) and use Decal component inside Blueprint (very strange to me)

This option seems the simplest for me. I just changing the color or emission parameter of the material, the actor Create Dynamic Material in BeginPlay and implements the interaction Interface
