AC_FDM_Component manages the menu’s entries and their placements. It supports runtime operations such as:
  • Add entries
  • Remove entries
  • Move entries to new locations
  • Swap entry locations
Entries are standard UObject instances that implement the entry interface BPI_FDM_Entry. The component treats entries as data + behavior providers, while the UI is responsible for visualization.
