TTP# 337136 - SETTINGS: Target Platform settings polish
TTP# 337652 - EDITOR: Limit Project supported Android icons down to 1
TTP# 337650 - EDITOR: There is only 1 icon for Apple for Project Supported Platforms
DesktopPlatform now contains a static array of FPlatformInfo. This can be used to query UE4 about its available platforms, even when they're not available as a target platform.
FPlatformInfo contains the information required by the editor (such as a localized display name and icon), as well as whether a platform is a variation ("flavor") of another, and if so, whether the flavor affects the build output (eg, Win32 or Win64), or the cook output (eg, Android_XYZ). This lets the editor build up nested menus for the "Package Project" and "Cook Project" options, rather than just showing everything as a flat list.

#TTP 331416 - UE4: Would like to be able to set a hotkey to open the Reference viewer similar to "find in content browser"
#branch UE4
#proj Editor.UnrealEd
#proj Editor.LevelEditor
#add Added new global UICommand ViewReferences, bound to Alt + Shift + R.
#add Implemented the new UICommand in the AssetEditorToolkit and the LevelEditorr. This means that most of the editor is covered by this hotkey. Hitting it in an asset editor brings it up for the current asset, hitting it in the level editor brings it up for the selected asset.
#Further work: Further work is required to modify the content browsers uses of view references, for now it is deemed to be too much work for this task.

TTP# 332489 - TOOLS FEATURE: Editor: Allow user to designate which platforms a project is designed for; warn user when deploying to platforms that will result in a bad time
There is now a "Target Platforms" tab in the project settings which allows you to choose which platforms your project will target. This information is stored inside the .uproject file.
If you try and launch, cook, or package for a project that isn't on the supported list, then you'll see a suppressible warning notifying you that the project may not run as expected. This is also conveyed to you via a warning icon next to platforms which aren't set as a target.
Additionally the target platform icons are shown in the tooltip on the "Open Project" dialog, as well as in the tab area of the level editor.

Splitted World Browser views into three independent windows, each window can be summoned from a hierarchy view or details view toolbar
World composition can now be toggled through WorldSettings - bEnableWorldComposition. Once enabled persistent level will be treated as a world root. No more '?worldcompistion' parameter workarounds. 'Open World' command was removed, as levels saved with world composition enabled can be open through 'Open Level' command.
Added bEnableWorldOriginRebasing parameter to WorldSettings, which contols whether world origin shifting should be used

#ttp 331829 - Mobile Preview in Editor
#proj Engine
#branch UE4
#summary First pass of changes to remove GRHIFeatureLevel, allowing for multiple scenes with different feature levels to exist. First step towards dynamic mobile preview in the editor.
#change Added GMaxRHIFeature level which contains the highest supported feature level on this machine
#change Added a cvar "r.FeatureLevelPreview" which, when set to 1, enables a feature level selection in the quick settings menu. Not wired up to anything at the minute
#change Added a feature level variable to FScene, which is currently initialized to whatever GRHIFeatureLevel is. Accessed with GetFeatureLevel()
#change Added a helper accessor GetFeatureLevel() to FSceneView which gets the feature level from the relevant scene. Purely to reduce the amount of typing needed to get to a feature level
#change Many changes across the renderer to try and read the current feature level from the view or scene. Not everything is done yet, but this is almost all of the "easy" stuff. As there is still just a global feature level in the engine, nothing should change.

TTP# 279062 - ROCKET: TASK: PUNTABLE: Viewports: "Drag to Attach" feature
Moved FEdModePicker out of the Private section of the PropertyEditor module, and into its own module so that it can be shared between the PropertyEditor and LevelEditor modules. Also renamed it to FEdModeActorPicker.
Added a way to filter FEdModeActorPicker by checking the actor directly (this complements the class type check it already had).
Added an actor picker button next to the scene outliner in the "Attach To" menu on actors. This is also mapped to the Alt+A command.
Built and tested in unity and non-unity.

#ttp 306334 - ROCKET: TASK: PUNTABLE: Stats: FN: Make diagnostic stats discoverable and available in the UI (don't require console to toggle)
#branch UE4
#change
DECLARE_STATS_GROUP û Added additional param GroupCategory, for subfolder use in the UI. Fixedup all Stats Group usage so the category is now propagated through where it needs to be.
Currently all Group stats have the Category æAdvancedÆ, and all engine stats have the Category æSimpleÆ û this is just to differentiate them for now, better categories will come along in future.
Modified FindOrAddMetaData as it now broadcasts a delegate (via a TaskGraph) whenever a new stat meta data is added û this was needed as not all the stat groups are æregisteredÆ when the level viewports are created (they are drip loaded), so the viewports need to listen for any additions thereafter...
GroupDescription is displayed as a tooltip in the UI for the stat entry and we may want to localize these.
RenderStats & RenderGroupedWithHierarchy: Modified so that it now takes the viewport that it should render to as a param (which is also used to determine if each stat should be visible).
Removed StatsEnabled delegate in favour of StatCheckEnabled, StatEnabled, StatDisabled, StatDisableAll for more finite usage and feedback when toggling them.
Modified FHUDGroupManager HandleCommand It now uses the new delegates to work out whether it needs to enable or disable for the current viewport, so itÆs more involved than a simple toggle, itÆs more ôis the stat enabled for the current viewport, and is it enabled for any viewportö delegate querying so it can react accordingly.
Added struct FSimpleStatFuncs: Which contains info on each æSimple StatÆ such as; name, category, description, renderfunc, togglefunc and the side of the viewport it should be rendered to
ExecSimpleStat û Calls Exec for a registered Simple Stat, ensuring the correct viewport is set
IsSimpleStat û Checks to see if a stat is a registered Simple Stat or not
SetSimpleStat û Sets the state of a specified Simple Stats
SetSimpleStats - Sets the state of the specified Simple Stats
RenderSimpleStats û Renders the Simple Stats if they are enabled, and have Render functions assigned.
Each Exec function had the code it executes which itÆs toggled and rendered into functions
Added FStatUnitData & FStatHitchesData: Moved all the globals/static variables used when enabling Stat Unit/Hitches into a struct as itÆs now used by multiple viewports and they needed their own copies. Also moved their draw functions here too.
FSceneViewport:
SwapStatCommands û Exchanges the enabled stats between two viewports, this is so when PIEing the stats which were enabled on the Level Viewport (if playing in active viewport only) get transposed to the Game Viewport, and then restored when PIE ends.
SEditorViewport:
ToggleStatCommand û Called when a stat is enabled/disabled from the UI
IsStatCommandVisible û Checks to see if a stat command should appear as visible in the UI
SEditorViewportViewMenu:
GenerateViewMenuContent û Made protected and virtual so it could be called externally.
FLevelViewportCommands: Added the code needed to generate commands for each of the Stat menu entries, however because not all stats are registered when this happens, it also creates some delegates to listen out for others that are registered later
Destructor û Needed to reset delegates
HandleNewGroupStat û Creates the new group stat commands
HandleNewStat û Creates the new stat command
FindStatIndex û Looks for where a stat should be inserted in the menu in order to maintain alphabetical order
SLevelViewport:
Modified the code so that the states of all the SimpleStats are saved so they can be restored next time the editor is ran (previously just handled FPS).
OnFloatingButtonClicked û Called whenever any of the level viewports floating buttons are clicked in order to correctly set the ælastÆ viewport global
OnToggleAllStatCommands û Called when the user selects æHide AllÆ from the viewport.
ToggleStatCommand û Called when the user selects any other stat option from the viewport.
BindStatCommand û Used to bind the menu action to the command name (used by delegate)
Added SLevelEditorViewportViewMenu (extends SEditorViewportViewMenu), and overrode GenerateViewMenuContent so that OnFloatingButtonClicked can be called whenever the menu is clicked on. This is also called during GenerateOptionsMenu, GenerateCameraMenu, GenerateShowMenu & OnToggleMaximize
Added global ptr GStatProcessingViewportClient (sim to Current, Last) used to keep track of which viewport the stat should be applied too (only valid within the scope of the Exec call).
FViewportClient:
Moved global ESoundShowFlags enum list into this class.
FCommonViewportClient:
Destructor û Needed to reset GStatProcessingViewportClient
FLevelEditorViewportClient
SetCurrentViewport û moved code responsible for setting the global æcurrentÆ viewport ptr into a func
SetLastKeyViewport û moved the code responsible for settings the global ælastÆ viewport ptr into a func
UGameViewportClient:
Destructor û Needed to cleanup delegate usage.
FViewportClient & FLevelEditorViewportClient & UGameViewportClient*
GetStatUnitData û The viewports copy of the variables needed when running the Stat Unit Exec
GetStatHitchesData û The viewports copy of the variables needed when running the Stat Hitches Exec
GetEnabledStats û Gets a list of all the stats which are enabled for the viewport
SetEnabledStats û Sets a list of all the stats which should be enabled for the viewport
IsStatEnabled û Checks to see if a specific stat is enabled for the viewport
SetStatEnabled û Sets a specifics stats state to enabled or disabled
GetSoundShowFlags û Gets which flags are enabled for the Stat Sounds Exec
SetSoundShowFlags û Sets which flags are enabled for the Stat Sounds Exec
HandleViewportStatCheckEnabled (delegate) û checks to see if a specific stat is enabled on this viewport
HandleViewportStatEnabled (delegate) û enables a specific stat for the viewport
HandleViewportStatDisabled (delegate) û disables a specific stat for the viewport
HandleViewportStatDisableAll (delegate) û disables all stats for the viewport
*FViewportClient has dummy virtual funcs and LevelEditor/Game both have the same implementations, the only differences is the GameViewports member variables are static so that the stat info persists between runs.
FLevelEditorViewportInstanceSettings deprecated bShowFPS in favour of an EnabledStats array (so we can track the state of all stats, not just FPS).
Added new config var bSaveSimpleStats: if enabled, restores previously enabled level viewport simple stats the next time the editor runs (defaults to false).
Modified FillShowFlagMenu so that thereÆs just one func and you specify where (if any) youÆd like a separator to occur.
Added FillShowStatsSubMenus so that menus can be generated which have submenus
Added the Stats sub menu to the View menu
Modified Execs so that the GStatProcessingViewportClient is set to the correct default viewport (if it wasnÆt specified), and clears again after itÆs been processed
HandleStatCommand now takes World and ViewportClient as params too û needed when Execs enabled other Execs so the world/viewport persists.
SetAverageUnitTimes û Added as a Setter func for GetAverageUnitTimes (moved code out of Stat Unit renderer and modified so that it only updates once per frame).
Stripped out all unneeded globals

This tidys up some logic and duplication between the level editor viewport context menu and the scene outliner, since the level viewport menu can now extend the scene outliner, rather than having to duplicate its functionality. The ability to completely override the menu still remains by way of an override delegate.
