UAnimInstance::Montage_GetSectionChangedDelegate

function Engine Since 4.0

#include "Animation/AnimInstance.h"

Access: public Specifiers: ENGINE_API

Description

Returns a pointer to the FOnMontageSectionChanged delegate for the given montage instance, allowing inspection or late binding of a section-changed callback.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns nullptr when the montage is not playing or has already ended. Always null-check the result.
• The pointer's lifetime is tied to the FAnimMontageInstance — it becomes invalid as soon as the montage instance is destroyed at the end of playback.
