Description

If focus is taken away from the viewport window in blueprints (LMB in the details pane, for instance), pressing W, E, or R to change the transform widget will not work until focus is returned.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open Editor (any project)
2. Select and open any blueprint with a static mesh component
3. In blueprint viewport, select the static mesh component.
4. Select viewport to provide focus on viewport
5. Press W,E, or R to see transform widget change
6. LMB in Details Pane
7. Press W, E, or R to change transform widget again

Results:

Transform widget doesn't change if focus is not directly on viewport.

Expected:

Transform widget changes as details pane cannot receive direct focus.
