Appendix B: Asset Type Coverage

Complete list of asset types supported by "Describe to Orion" (Content Browser right-click menu):

Asset Type	UE Class	Information Extracted
Blueprint	`UBlueprint`	Parent class, graph count, variable list (name + type), compile status
Widget Blueprint	`UWidgetBlueprint`	Same as Blueprint (inherits from UBlueprint)
Data Table	`UDataTable`	Row struct type, column definitions (name + C++ type), row count, first 10 row names
Data Asset	`UDataAsset`	Class name, all editable properties with values (truncated at 200 chars per value)
Material	`UMaterial`	Material domain (Surface/Decal/LightFunction/PostProcess/UI), blend mode (Opaque/Masked/Translucent/Additive), shading model (DefaultLit/Unlit/Subsurface/etc.), two-sided flag, expression count
Material Instance	`UMaterialInstanceConstant`	Parent material path, scalar parameter overrides (name = value), vector parameter overrides (RGBA), texture parameter overrides (name = texture path)
Static Mesh	`UStaticMesh`	LOD count, per-LOD vertex and triangle counts, material slot names, bounding box (origin + extent in cm)
Skeletal Mesh	`USkeletalMesh`	Bone count, LOD count, morph target names (up to 20), material slot names
Texture	`UTexture2D`	Dimensions (width x height), pixel format (RGBA8, BC1, BC7, etc.), compression settings, LOD bias, sRGB flag, texture group
Sound Wave	`USoundWave`	Duration (seconds), sample rate (Hz), channel count (mono/stereo)
Animation Sequence	`UAnimSequence`	Duration (seconds), number of frames, rate scale, additive animation type (None/Local/Mesh Space)
User Defined Enum	`UUserDefinedEnum`	All enum entries (display name + index), excludes hidden _MAX entry
User Defined Struct	Cast to `UStruct`	Member variable names and C++ types (via TFieldIterator)
Generic Fallback	Any `UObject`	Class name, all editable/BlueprintVisible properties with values (capped at 50 properties, truncated at 200 chars per value)

Important: "Describe to Orion" works on any asset type. Types not listed above use the generic fallback (class name + properties), which is still useful for understanding asset configuration.
