First frame flicker. Loading widget scale is wrong in the first frame about asyncloadingscreen HOT 6 OPEN

Hi @dantreble,
Yes, maybe the data from gettickspacegeometry() doesn't exist in the first frame.

However, I don't know how to fix this issue because I cannot reproduce this bug on my side. It would be very helpful if you could provide the project link or screenshot/video of the issue. I will investigate the bug.

Note that the plugin depends on the MoviePlayer plugin. Many of the issues here are either related to MoviePlayer or the engine itself, which is beyond my ability to fix.

Best Regards,
Truong

If this video attaches and you can skip frame by frame, you can see the layout is different first frame

I was able to get a breakpoint in a standalone game and see it 0,0 on the first frame. I also logged it with UE_LOG :-)

Oh, I see. The loading widget scale is wrong in the first frame. Interesting!

I will take a look at this issue. Tbh, if the player doesn't have OCD, they may not notice it :). Anyway, thanks for the update.

Just updated the DPI scale from the viewport size instead: 8acaab1

Hopefully this will solve your issue.

Thank you!

I did the same, although I clamped it at 1.0, because on PS5 the dpi scale went to 2.0 at 4k. While with the original code it stayed at 1.0

PS5
GetTickSpaceGeometry().ToPaintGeometry().GetLocalSize() 1920,1080 Scale 1.000000
GEngine->GameViewport->Viewport->GetSizeXY() 3840,2160 Scale 2.000000

(the elements look VERY large at 2.0, which is almost the inverse to what you want!)

Some PC scenarios for comparison
GetTickSpaceGeometry().ToPaintGeometry().GetLocalSize() 2752,1152 Scale 1.066667
GEngine->GameViewport->Viewport->GetSizeXY() 3440,1440 Scale 1.333333

GetTickSpaceGeometry().ToPaintGeometry().GetLocalSize() 1536,864 Scale 0.799600
GEngine->GameViewport->Viewport->GetSizeXY() 1920,1080 Scale 1.000000

GetTickSpaceGeometry().ToPaintGeometry().GetLocalSize() 1024,576 Scale 0.532800
GEngine->GameViewport->Viewport->GetSizeXY() 1280,720 Scale 0.666000

Thanks for the info. I will keep the issue open for reference, in case someone may encounter the same problem.
