Detailed Description

Bus for making requests to the UI Editor entity context. There is one UiEntityContext per UI canvas, if it is loaded in the editor then its context will be a UiEditorEntityContext.

virtual AZ::SliceComponent::SliceInstanceAddress UiEditorEntityContextRequests::CloneEditorSliceInstance ( AZ::SliceComponent::SliceInstanceAddress sourceInstance )

pure virtual

Clones an existing slice instance in this UI entity context. New instance is immediately returned.

Returns: address of new slice instance. A null address will be returned if the source instance address is invalid.

virtual void UiEditorEntityContextRequests::QueueSliceReplacement	(	const char *	targetPath,
		const AZStd::unordered_map< AZ::EntityId, AZ::EntityId > &	selectedToAssetMap,
		const AZStd::unordered_set< AZ::EntityId > &	entitiesToReplace,
		AZ::Entity *	commonParent,
		AZ::Entity *	insertBefore
	)

pure virtual

Editor functionality to replace a set of entities with a new instance of a new slice asset. This is a deferred operation since the asset may not yet have been processed (i.e. new asset). Once the asset has been created, it will be loaded and instantiated.

Parameters

targetPath	path to the slice asset to be instanced in-place over the specified entities.
selectedToAssetMap	relates selected (live) entity Ids to Ids in the slice asset for post-replace Id reference patching.
entitiesToReplace	contains entity Ids to be replaced.

virtual void UiEditorEntityContextRequests::RestoreSliceEntity	(	AZ::Entity *	entity,
		const AZ::SliceComponent::EntityRestoreInfo &	info
	)

pure virtual

Restores an entity back to a slice instance for undo/redo only. A valid EntityRestoreInfo must be provided, and is only extracted directly via SliceReference::GetEntityRestoreInfo().
