U-Link is an editor plugin providing a way to grab, share and invoke links to various assets and asset elements. Links can be generated through context menu extensions, then shared as URLs. A link copied to the system clipboard can be navigated to in the editor by a simple, configurable shortcut command.

The plugin has an optional additional program (freely downloadable) which can make the generated links clickable when displayed in compatible 3rd party software, such as web browsers. See limitations section for details.

Links can be generated for jumping to the following elements:

– Assets (browse links for finding in the content browser, and edit links for opening the asset editor)

– Blueprint graph nodes (event, function)

– Animation Blueprint graph nodes (event, function, anim graph, state transition graph)

– Material graph nodes

– Actors in a level

All links can be invoked from anywhere within the editor, so long as keyboard shortcuts are not suppressed.

Intended use cases:

– Sharing links between team members within a project, saving time when communicating asset paths or how to locate a given actor or blueprint node.

– Embedding in external project notes/docs/todo lists for easy lookup later.

– Embedding in plugin/asset pack documentation to allow users of plugins and packs to jump to pack contents referenced by the documentation.
